Това може да ви изглежда като тривиален въпрос, но днес открих някои озадачаващи материали по въпроса:
Интересно ще е да се датират тези рисунки на Толкин, защото двете кули нарисувани на тях са Минас Итил и Ортанк, а не Ортанк и Сирит Унгол, както се предполага от писмата (м/у другото дясната кула в горната картинка според вас е ли ортанк или не?):

The Fellowship of the Ring will do, I think; and fits well with the fact that the last chapter of the Volume is The Breaking of the Fellowship. The Two Towers gets as near as possible to finding a title to cover the widely divergent Books 3 and 4; and can be left ambiguous – it might refer to Isengard and Barad-dыr, or to Minas Tirith and B; or Isengard and Cirith Ungol.1 On reflection I prefer for Vol. III The War of the Ring, since it gets in the Ring again; and also is more non-committal, and gives less hint about the turn of the story : the chapter titles have been chosen also to give away as little as possible in advance. But I am not set in my choice.

I am not at all happy about the title 'the Two Towers'. It must if there is any real reference in it to Vol II refer to Orthanc and the Tower of Cirith Ungol. But since there is so much made of the basic opposition of the Dark Tower and Minas Tirith, that seems very misleading. There is, of course, actually no real connecting link between Books III and IV, when cut off and presented separately as a volume.
Ще се опитам тези дни да изровя датите, в които са рисувани тези корици, но ако някой има готова информация по въпроса, много ще ме улесни :)
