Hey,
I just purchased this poster from a collector. It’s the same poster, from Athena International, London, 1976 by Jimmy Cauton and printed in England, number 20/6560 from Allen & Unwin LTD. Do you know how many worth this poster is? You can e-mail me if you can say that. Thanks a lot.
I have a folding greeting card with the J. Cauty poster/image on the front, that my sister sent to me from London back in 1981 (I had the same poster, but it is long gone). I have searched and only found the poster. Do you know if any of these greeting cards still exist? It was from Athena International, London, Printed in England, No. 756560. Thanks, David
Hi, I’m Daniele and live in Venice (Italy). I’ve a poster like this that I love.It’s original of Athena International (London)- 1976 and it’s numerate: 30/6560. It is identic at your one and it’s the first time that i see one in all this year.Do you thnk that it can have also an economic value. I don’t want absolutely to sell it, but I’m interested to give more information to this particular work of Jimmy Cauty.
Thank you.

hey, I have this poster on a wooden plaque measuring 12″x8″. Is it worth anything? it has Athena International sticker on the back…:)
Hi there,
I’ve heard that Jimmy Cauty also did a ‘Hobbit’ poster, I don’t suppose you know if this is true, or if you’ve seen / got an image?
I’m intrigued
Thanks!
hi, I have one of these prints on a wooden panel, the rear is a label that says the name of the artist Jimmy Cauty, but it has value?
is it 4 sale by any chance because my dad has 1 like it but it is worn out and i want a new 1 ty xx and how mutch would it be ty agen
I’ve got the poster and it seems I’m lucky to have it! I’ve had a check around the net and found that All-posters have a few smaller ones that are reasonably priced but the large ones go for a couple of hundred pounds. Can’t find the Hobbit one at all so I suspect that would be stupid money. Cauty did these when he was only 17 and also did the cover for an LP of ‘The king of Elflands Daughter’ which featured Christopher Lee narating parts of the text. Cauty went on to help found the KLF which took the UK music scene by storm before him and his partner burnt all their money to show their disdane for the industry. He now seems to have gone back to making visual art.
Hi,
I have a a 33″x 22″ picture of the Jimmy Cauty lord of the rings, that seems to be stuck on a dark wood or hardboard backing 3/8″ thick and coated with some sort of protective finish. I have had it for over 20years I do not know if it is a print or a poster can anyone advise and is it of any value? not that I would sell it but I have not put it on my insurance as when I bought it all that time ago it was first reduced to £56 and then further to £28 which is what I paid for it.
I had this poster full size, wooden back with a diamond in the staff. I loaned it to Brian G, Portland Oregon, almost 20 years ago. Does anyone have any information that would lead me back to my poster
Hey Peter,
Best of luck - maybe someone will see your note here and can persuade Brian G to do the decent thing…
