I do have a suggestion for anyone who would like to read the Hobbit story in its original form but doesn't have the money to pay for the first edition. Just get hold of The Annotated Hobbit which was edited by Douglas Anderson. It shows both the current chapter Riddles in the Dark, and the original one.

You can find this on Amazon, and I've seen it used on e-bay for about ten dollars.

Oh! I've seen that, and have seriously considered purchasing it. The scale just tipped! Thanks
