- Two sets of sheets were used for the first U.S. issue of this book. 4,000 sets were ordered from Unwin initially, but large pre-orders prompted Houghton Mifflin to print a subsequent 30,000 themselves. Both sets were bound and released on the same date. Unwin sheets have the copyright by George Allen & Unwin, and U.S. sheets are copyright by Frank Richard Williamson and Christopher Reuel Tolkien. The copy here uses U.S. sheets. (Information from J. R. R. Tolkien: A Descriptive Bibliography by Hammond & Anderson.)
