Good catch, Dan!

Here's what the plaques look like:

Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.

I suppose you could make two wardrobes from a magical apple tree.

…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.

I agree, Stanley. A wardrobe is something vaguely exotic to most Americans. Maybe if it were The Lion, The Witch and the Closet, we wouldn't try too hard to figure out which closet it was that inspired Lewis.
