About this Item
Description:
First edition, first impression, hardback issue. All the required points of the first printing are present: the Bloomsbury imprint, a 10-down-to-1 number line, the list of equipment on p. 53 with "1 wand" appearing twice, and the misprint "Philospher's" on the rear cover. Both paperback and hardback issues of the first impression were published on 26 June 1997. Only 500 copies were issued in hardback, of which it is thought around 300 were sold to libraries and schools; copies in collectible condition are therefore scarce. Errington A1(a); Grolier Children's 100, 100. Octavo. Original matt laminated printed paper boards, spine and front cover lettered in white, yellow, dark green, and black. Without dust jacket, as issued. Housed in a custom red morocco-backed folding box. Two presentation inscriptions on front pastedown. Extremities a little worn, some minor lifting to laminate, very slight lean to spine; a very good copy. Seller Inventory # 174733
