That’s a very interesting site, Gandalf. Thanks.
On the other hand, I wonder if this is actually a literacy issue at all. Whether other hobbits could read the labels or not, I would certainly expect Frodo to supervise the claiming of the presents, probably checking all the labels himself. After all, what else keeps Lobelia from walking off with everything?
Of course, I’m sure he’d be very polite about it. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
