Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - Very early signed and inscribed first edition

Rowling J.K.

Verlag: Bloomsbury, 1997

Beschreibung

First paperback edition, very early fifteenth printing of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, signed and inscribed by the author ['To Amanda, Best wishes, J.K. Rowling'] on the dedication page. This copy features the very early signature variation when Rowling was still using periods to separate the 'J' and the 'K' in her signature. She dispensed with these in late summer of 1998 to create a more fluid signature. The book is inscribed to the original recipient and presents a lovely example of this rare signature variation. It has been fully authenticated by J.K. Rowling signature expert Adam Houston of The Harry Potter Specialist and comes with a Letter of Authenticity (LoA) and a collector's card with interesting details. The book is in very fine, unread condition. The boards are excellent, with only very minor fading towards the spine, vibrant colours and without the usual laminate issues. Only the lower front corner tip is very slightly pushed; the other corner tips and spine ends are still very sharp. The binding is very tight, and the pages are bright and clean, without inscriptions, names, dog-ears, or other flaws .Comes in a half-leather clamshell box. A highly collectible copy of a very early signed and inscribed first edition. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 2271b
