…on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a fair green country under a swift sunrise.

Yes, I'd say it's overpriced. You could probably get those same pictures in a book, as Stanley said.
Nice calendar though. Good ol' Tollers considered himself quite the artist, eh?

I have actually purchased a calendar containing reproductions of all the art listed in this one. It's quite nice and I'm sure it's still out there. Not sure what my co-workers think about it, but they're used to my desk by now.
