The Collection Grows - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I have been fortunate to catalog three "new" calendars (ones I had not previously discovered). Have acquired two of them and am working on the third. Will add them to my compilation when I receive them. You can check them out at:

www.angelfire.com/tn3/tolkiencalendars

And check out the "Calendar of the Month" feature. Comments on the site are always welcome!

Lalwende -

Regarding Treasures from the Misty Mountains.....this must be one of those items more widely available in the U.S. as I purchased mine in a regular bookstore some years ago. The listings are not complete but the colored photos are quite good. Just be gentle with the book, since the pages have a way of detaching from the spine.

if you are interested in the various Tolkien boardgames "out there", you should visit:

http://www.freewebs.com/tolkienboard...ting/index.htm

Its creator (Mike) wrote to me about my calendar site and told me of his. Seems a good example of parallel evolution (for specialized collecting sites). Hope you enjoy it!

Cool site.
Like the Rankin/Bass Bilbo on the homepage.

I just saw samwise posted and it reminded me of a little friend that I have. I guess it's part of my LOTR collection. It's a plant. I named it Samwise Gamtree.....Ok Ok I know it's lame to name your plants,but hey I guess I'm lame. I have a small bust of Sam that I got from burgerking awhile back and he sits in the dirt at Gamtree's stem.

Aw...I think it's cute.

Sounds imaginitive to me, not lame.

Happy May to all!

May means a new calendar of the month on my website:

www.angelfire.com/tn3/tolkiencalendars

Have recently added some Finnish Tolkien Society calendars and will soon add a couple from France.

The biggest single change is the format of the site. I put the thumbnails into 10 different lists making the homepage easier to open (faster for those without hi-speed internet access).

Check it all out. Am always happy to hear from anyone!
