» More proof that Tolkien is cooler than you.
For 20 years, Tolkien wrote letters from Santa for each of his kids. These weren’t the half-assed letters from Santa that you probably got, these were completely off the wall and batshit insane. They also had illustrations. They were all actually compiled and published in a book. In conclusion, Tolkien is the man.
You can read one of the letters and see some drawings here.
