Fingolfin's Findings XXXIX: A rare photo of J.R.R. Tolkien, ca. 1973

Thanks to a proud dad (Abre numa nova janela) who accompanied his son to his new place of learning, Merton College, I today found (or possibly re-discovered, it feels familiar somehow) a photo of J.R.R. Tolkien sitting at the stone table (Abre numa nova janela) he appreciated so much. [The link does no longer work as OUI is no longer available. See article update below.]

Quite a few table have started calling it 'Tolkien's Table' or linking it to the Stone Table in Lewis' Narnia stories which sounds rather unlikely but it is a fact that the college has restricted acccess to it in recent years because some tourists could not behave themselves. 

Keep on reading by becoming my member here on Steady (Abre numa nova janela).
