Notes
The map showing A Part of The Shire appears on page 30. The 1954 version of the map of The West of Middle-earth at the End of the Third Age is present in full on page 6 as well as appearing spread over five integral pages. The Map of Gondor, Rohan and Mordor appears on pages 774-775.

This edition only includes a brief excerpt from the Appendices - A Part of the Tale of Aragorn and Arwen from the Annals of the Kings and Rulers.

For this impression changes were made to the lettering on the upper and lower covers as well as to the spine.

Further minor changes to the cover lettering were made for the 12th Impression 1973.

One copy of the 11th Impression has been seen in the cover used for the 12th Impression 1973.
