Tolkien's annotated map of Middle-earth discovered

[SirGalrim]

Apparently someone found a map of Middle Earth featuring annotations from Tolkien in a copy of LotR owned by illustrator Pauline Baynes:

So who has the pocket money of £60,000 to get it? If you do, please share it high-res.

This is an incredible find, thank you for sharing!

I love Baynes' maps and have both of 'em matted and framed with pride of place in my office - I refer to them often while writing ToR adventures

I'd read this last week; very cool indeed. And as I understand It, there's been a few discoveries like this in the last decade. Makes me wonder what other cool things are still out there, to be discovered some day...

Does anyone know anything about that tape with a conference Tolkien gave in Amsterdam that also came up last year or so? Haven't heard about it since the discovery.

This makes me hopeful that there might still be an undiscovered genealogy for the Elf-lords of Mirkwood.
