Ah, those wonderful Athena Tolkien posters!
Lord, how I adored them back in the Seventies.
My flat walls were plastered with them.
I had a beloved woodblock version of Gandalf too, which sadly went to Mordor.
The artist was one Jimmy Cauty from the Wirral and like me, just 17 at the time! What a talent he had! And like me he's still going!
I'm pretty sure I still have some of them rolled up in the attic from forty years ago! Its like Rivendell up there! Nothing ages!
This related Glastonbury poster was a particular favourite. I hope to reach the Tower on the Tor again one day.
Jimmy Cauty did the beautiful artwork for the LP The King of Elfland's Daughter as well. Its an album I've never heard.
This is some original artwork for the actual book The King of Elfland's Daughter by Lord Dunsany. I still prefer Jimmy Cauty's though.
The book is on my bucket list!
Did you have any Jimmy Cauty art?
