The image that accompanies this article is not the original "Map of Rohan, Gondor, and Mordor" but merely depicts the corresponding area. This image is part of a 4-frame map seen in some newer versions of the book(s).

The original map came folded as a poster. I found the actual map (with CT's signature on the upper right) here: http://corecanvas.s3.amazonaws.com/theonering-0188db0e/gallery/original/gondor_map.jpg

and also this reproduction, obviously adapted for printing in smaller sizes. http://www.oneil.com.au/tolkien/maps/map_mordor.gif

I think that the original map had red letters instead of blac. Sage 05:25, 30 August 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Good observations. I'll try to check (and update) the information soon.--Morgan 14:58, 30 August 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
