Condition: Fine in a fine jacket. GrandPré, Mary (illustrator). Later printing. Signed early printing of the US edition of the first book in the Harry Potter series, with the slightly altered title (from "Philosopher's" to "Sorcercer's") and the vivid illustrations by Mary GrandPré. The Harry Potter series, about a boy who goes to a wizard school, has been the biggest literary phenomenon of our lifetime. The books remain formative for millions, including the many readers who reject Rowling's agitations against trans rights. This copy from the personal collection of Mary and Robert Brown, longtime owners of Books, Bytes, and Beyond bookstore in Glen Rock, NJ, who hosted Rowling for an event in October 1999, where this book was signed. Due to the strength of the forgery market, Rowling signatures are justifiably suspect. Authentically signed copies with clear provenance, like this one, are therefore more desirable. An excellent example of her early signature. 9'' x 6''. Original quarter red cloth, purple paper boards, gilt-lettered spine (no "Year 1"). In original unclipped ($17.95) color pictorial dust jacket with art by GrandPré. Dark green endpapers. Illustrated throughout in black and white by Grandpré. 21st printing. viii, 309, [1], [2] pages.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. First American edition, First Printing of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. This rare association copy of J.K. Rowling's debut novel was signed in October 1998, the month of its U.S. publication. Rowling signed the book on the verso of the half-title page for Jim Aylesworth (b. 1943), a respected American children's author with over 30 published works. The signing of this copy was arranged by Scholastic, the publisher for both Rowling and Aylesworth. Association copies like this signed and exchanged within literary circles carry special significance for collectors. Aylesworth's distinguished career in children s literature further enhances the importance of this copy, highlighting a connection between two celebrated authors. Notably, 1998 also marked the first time Scholastic published a book by Jim Aylesworth.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First American edition, second printing of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer s Stone" (the USA-adapted title of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"), signed in October 1998 by J.K. Rowling on the verso of the half-title page. The book was signed during Rowling's first American tour, during which she met groups of only 100-200 people. This situation would change drastically the following year for her second American tour, after the Harry Potter hype had taken off. Signed American editions with a 1998 signature are therefore extremely rare. Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LoA) from Adam Houston (TheHarryPotterSpecialist), the world's sole J.K. Rowling signature expert and an informative collector's card that provides additional details. The book is in near fine, unread condition with bumped spine ends, minor scratches on some page edges, and, inconspicuously due to the use of a black pen on a green background, the previous owner's name on the first free endpaper. The first-state dust jacket, featuring a review from The Guardian on the rear panel, is also in near fine condition. The jacket is slightly wrinkled at the spine ends but without fading or noticeable wear .A highly collectible early signed Harry Potter book, housed in a beautiful custom-made half-leather clamshell box.

In a very attractive dust jacket with The Guardian blurb on the rear panel (as required for the first issue jacket).
