I am looking for a list* of maps of Middle Earth which appear only in JRR Tolkien's and CT's books and writings or were authorized by JRRT**.
From my reading so far I have:
The Hobbit:
- "Thror's Map"
- "Wilderland" showing west to the Ford, East to Lonely Mountain, North to Grey Mountains, and South to almost Dol Guldor
The Lord of the Rings:
- "A Part Of The Shire"
- "The West Of Middle Earth" and its four zoomed in panels
- topographical map of Gondor/Rohan/Mordor
* I know lists are sometimes frowned upon on SE, but this seems like a finite-sized non-polling Q/A. Yes, I also Googled for an answer but only found lists of non-canonical maps.
** I don't want to spark a canonical debate so I've changed the question. Plus this is really what I'm interested in.
