If you have Hammond and Scull's JRRT: Artist and Illustrator, you can see some of his FCL work and read about it in the chapter "Art for Children". They give some information on his art materials. Pen and ink, pencil (both black and coloured), and watercolours were his mainstays when drawing and painting, as they were for his other artwork.
I don't know about the paper - the replicas often show a yellowed background, but that could just be the effect of the many years.
