| 3 | | Plotz, Richard (ed). Happy Birthday J. R. R. Tolkien: Tolkien Journal Volume III No. I. Journal. Brooklyn, NY: Tolkien Society of America, 1967. VG+
The Tolkien Society of America was founded in 1965 (originally known as the New York Tolkien Society), its basic objective being "to further communication among all the Tolkien enthusuasts everywhere." Dick Plotz of Brooklyn, New York published the first issue of the Tolkien Journal in 1965; eventually Ed Meskys assumed management of both the Society and the Journal. Ed Meskys also organized the first Tolkien Society of America conventions in the late 1960s, and published the Society's occasional newsletter know as The Green Dragon. An early quarterly issue of what was probably the first American journal published for fans of J. R. R. Tolkien (The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings) and his fantasy books. Pictorial wraps show just light wear, bright and clean. This issue of the Tolkien Journal is probably the most desirable of the early issues, with articles contributed by W. H. Auden and C. S. Kilby, and a higher quality cover with original artwork by Ann Kruger. Contents include Good and Evil in The Lord of the Rings by W. H. Auden, Tolkien as Scholar and Artist by Clyde S. Kilby, Science Fiction Fans Salute Tolkien by Edmund R. Meskys, A Birthday Menu for Professor Tolkine by Nancy Smith. Also contains birthday greetings from Nan Scott, P. L. Travers, Howard Nemerov, Peter Beagle, Albert Vanderburg, Gilles Gerris, Houghton Mifflin, etc.27 pp.
