What Tolkien stuff did you get in your stocking?

So, what Tolkien stuff did you get for Christmas or Hanukkah (my apologies to the Christian Orthodox out there who haven't celebrated yet)?

I received the RoTK EE DVD, The Middle Earth Atlas by Karen Wynn-Fondstadt, and a new Tolkein boxed set (Hobbit + LoTR) to replace my old worn-out paperbacks.

I got RotK-EE but the second disc was missing, being replaced by a duplcate Disc 3.

Holy cow, Attalus, what a bummer!

That would have driven me crazy! What did you do?

I got RoTK ex ed from my daughter, and I bought the LoTR page a day calendar for myself...happy new year!

ROTK - EE!

Tolkien calendar.

Does our leased house with its own movie theatre count? (Boy, we lucked into this deal!)

I got a National Geo thing about the LotR movies and history (which slightly disappointed me), and Humprey Carpenter's bio on Tolkien (which immeasurably pleased me).

Gwai! *waves* Long time no see!

I got that biography too. Am also very pleased with it.

I got TTT harback, 1st American ed....
and money, with which I bought more stuff, including The Smith of Wooton Major that until this point I had been obliged to check out from the library instead of owning. I'm much happier now. What I really wanted was UT, but coul not find it where I was looking. Oh, and as an early Christmas present, I had gotten a 2005 calender of Tolkien's original illustrations for ME. Which reminds me that I also wanted the book of his illustrations.
