The Tolkien Scrapbook is a book which contains poems, stories, songs, recipes, puzzles and essays about J.R.R. Tolkien from a multitude of authors (W.H. Auden, Edmund Wilson, Colin Wilson, and others), interspersed with short quotes from J.R.R. Tolkien, color illustrations by Tim Kirk and black and white illustrations by Michael Green. The book also includes a drawing by Tolkien[1], "The Lonely Mountain", (pp. 114-15).
In 1989, the title was changed to "A Tolkien Treasury".
- Note: In 2001, samples from some of the texts and pictures were published in A Tolkien Treasury (miniature edition).
