Mine.



Apologies for the godawful scan. There's really nothing here of the original.

The Boy walked in and congratulated me on my first pic of Bilbo. I nearly snapped his head off with my, "It's not Bilbo. It's Tolkien." As if even the whisper of it would commit me to an endeavor for which I'm not yet equipped. But I suppose they are much the same animal--Bilbo and old JRR. Pipe smoking writers with a fondness for waistcoats. I'm guessing on the last, but I've got a gut feeling about it.

Though, going by the only photo I've ever seen of him, I sometimes get twinklings of Gandalf. Such eyebrows.
