Hilarious but not very Tolkienish! Very Happy I can't begin to guess. Who's the gay prince, btw? (((I hope he's not some minor tyrant ---- from Scotshobbiton....? Shocked )))

That is supposed to be Thranduil. I will leave it up to others to guess which nationality thought he should appear as a 'gay prince'.
And how dare you sully the good name of Scotshobbits Odo with your implications!!
Our gay princes are very well attired, renowed for it in fact resplendeant in their pink kilts, sipping buckie and irn bru through a straw from cocktail glasses with umbrellas in and a cherry on a stick.

France, no doubt.

Love the Pic with the spiders, Bilbo looks like Poirot Laughing

Edit: on second thought, is the spider pic the French one? The style in which the dwarves are drawed looks very French

I was thinking it might the French one as the dwarves shared some resemblance with certain characters in the French cartoon, Il était une fois l'homme

PT, these illustrations are wonderful! I'm trying to look at more Hobbit-related art. This thread is a great inspiration.

Why are there so many versions of The Hobbit world wide that are illustrated, but the American versions back in the seventies (when I became a fan) had no art except the covers and maps?!?

Thanks!

The hardback versionof the Annotated Hobbit is excellent for illustratins from all over the world.

"but the American versions back in the seventies (when I became a fan) had no art except the covers and maps?!?"- Wobbit

And I believe the first cover for the US edition was so awful it gave Tolkien kittens.
