What edition is this?

I inherited these three books from my grandparents after they passed away. Since I already own LOTR in my native language and don't plan on reading them in English, I was wondering what version this is, if they are rare and how much they would go for if I were to sell them?

Each book has an interesting red color on the top edges, and a foldable map stuck to the last page. See pictures.

Any help would be appreciated!

Gift buying help for boyfriend.

I noticed all of the box sets from Tolkien are on sale on Amazon and I really wanted to get a set for my boyfriend but wasn’t sure which one to get him.
The first one that I went to was his myths and legends but as I am aware that my boyfriend loves everything Lord of the rings and loves Tolkien in general, I don’t know if he would rather a box set from the middle earth lore rather than outside of it.
I guess what I’m asking is if I were to stay inside of middle earth lore, what box set would you recommend?
