Visitors will get to peek into the mind of the creator of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion through Tolkien’s original illustrations, maps, draft manuscripts, and designs as well as family photographs and memorabilia. The exhibit features the most extensive public display of Tolkien material provided by his own family as well as the collections of the Tolkien Archive at the Bodleian Library (Oxford), Marquette University Libraries (Milwaukee), the Morgan, and private lenders.
