Pictures of Hobbit SE

[Gollum Cat 24]

I am looking to by the SEs of The Hobbit in the near future - but I am aware there are two pressings, one "hardcover" and one lame digipak but I'm trying to sort them out. I don't want the digipaks. Could someone be so kind as to take some photos of their albums for me to see here? Some pics of the Watertower pressings and some of the Decca pressings would be great.

Thanks!

Get the USA WaterTower ones, NOT the International Decca ones.  Trust me.

 

 

EDIT: It looks like the old pictures I took have vanished from the internet

That's what I was going to do, since I thought from my research that the US version was the "hardcover" type.

That's correct.

My worst fear (lol) is spending $30-60 on the CDs and then getting digipaks.

I just found some pictures of the WaterTower version of DOS here
