Thorin Oakenshield Map and Key 2 2
\m/ metal \m/ Buy it or burgle it. Whatever suits you. January 9, 2013
Beyond My Expectations I am reluctant to include the reason why I am rating the product at 5 stars, because I would not want to spoil the pure sense of joy for others that I encountered only an hour ago, when closely examining the map.All I will say is that this map was crafted by someone who truly loves the work of J.R.R. Tolkein. Perhaps on first glance, you might think this is just a piece of paper mounted on a wooden placard, but it is... more.The key is amazing - heavy, and well-crafted. It does have a small, inked "copyright" decal on the backside, but with persistence, it can be removed with your fingernail (for use as a prop). The key is removable (which may be obvious), but hangs nicely on the plaque.The top of the key has a decorative design, and is inscribed with the runes for D-u-r-i-n and then H-e-i-r (the "D" sort of looks more like the lower-case "d", but the serifs sort of suggest the "boxy" capital "D", and in context, it makes more sense for it to be capitalized).I also own Glamdring, and the plaque sits nicely next to the sword, and the runes are consistent (as you would expect).All in all, this is my favorite piece in my Lord of the Rings collection, and I cannot wait to share the map's secret with my friends.
