I'm biased toward the 2002-2003 movie tie-in hardcover box set. Yes, it's glued. Yes, the paper is thin. But the binding has held through three moves and two kids 'reading' it. It's a workhorse. Sometimes the flashy, expensive bindings are like museum pieces—you're scared to touch them. This set feels like a book, meant to be read. That's a kind of quality, too.

Isn't the 'best' binding the one that matches your use? If it's for display, a tight, pristine binding is key. If it's for reading, you need something that lies open comfortably. Some of these super-tight sewn bindings in new deluxe editions are so stiff they fight you, and you worry about breaking the spine. My favorite reading copy is an old paperback box set because it's already broken in. 'Quality' for a collector and 'quality' for a reader can be different things.

My ranking, based on hands-on experience: 1. Folio Society (by a mile), 2. 60th Anniversary Deluxe Slipcased Set, 3. 2005 Houghton Mifflin Collector's Edition, 4. 2020 Illustrated Three-Volume Set, 5. 2021 Pocket Sewn Set. Everything else is a tier below in binding integrity, though many are perfectly adequate.

My two cents: the best binding is the one that survives your reading habits. I'm rough on books, so I look for flexibility and reinforcement. The 2014 HarperCollins deluxe slipcased set (with the J.R.R. Tolkien monogram) has a tight, flexible spine that hasn't cracked after multiple reads, and the cloth-bound covers are tough.

It's pricier than the basic sets, but it sits between a standard hardcover and a ultra-luxury edition. The page edges are colored, which is a nice touch, and the sewn signatures are visible if you peek into the spine. This feels like a reader's set, not just a display piece.

The 2005 Houghton Mifflin 'Collector's Edition' box set (ISBN 0618517650) is a frequent mention in binding discussions. It was released post-movies but uses classic artwork. The binding is sewn, the paper is acid-free, and it comes in a sturdy slipcase. It's been out of print for a while, so you'll be hunting on eBay or used book sites, but it was specifically engineered for longevity and is often considered the pinnacle of 'readable' high-quality sets before you hit the four-figure limited editions.

Might be worth checking used bookstores for the 1987 Houghton Mifflin hardcover boxed set (the one with the silver spines and color plates by Tolkien). The typesetting in those is very clean and classic—it feels like reading a 'real' book from a mid-century library. The font has a timeless quality, and the slight texture of the paper reduces eye strain. They were built to last, too. You can often find them in good condition for less than a fancy new edition.
