First Editions/First Printings; All books in Fine/Fine condition with all first issue points. A stunning set of the the first US editions of the now timeless classic; of course, basis for the extraordinary films starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, etc., etc. The first US editions, particularly the first 3 volumes, are very scarce in F/F condition; the whole set in pristine condition rare indeed. "Sorcerer's Stone" shows only slight rubbing to the spine ends, else as new and unread; "Chamber of Secrets" only a gentle push to the lower spine end, else as new and unread; "Prisoner of Azkaban" also just a slight push to the spine foot, else as new and unread; other 4 volumes as new and unread, barely ever opened. An absolutely incredible set; a bucket list item for the Harry Potter fan! No book remaindered, not price clipped, not ex-library; all in protective Mylar sleeves and will ship carefully wrapped in a sturdy box. Date: 1998. Scholastic ISBN 0590353403 US

ISBN10: 0590353403, ISBN13: 9780590353403, [publisher: Scholastic] Hardcover First Edition This is a fine copy of the first US edition with all of the important true first printing points present: The book has a red spine with purple boards, which says J.K. Rowling not just Rowling at the top, it has the numberline 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 and states that it is printed in the U.S.A. The dust jacket is the first state dust jacket whereby the title has raised gold letters, the spine does not have the number 1 on it and will show a quote on the rear of the jacket from The Guardian, not Publisher's weekly. It will also have the correct price of $16.95 on the inner front flap. The book is in fine condition, unread with clean, fresh white pages with no marks or inscriptions of any kind. The boards are square with sharp corners, a tight binding and no toning or foxing to the pages. It is pristine apart from some slight bruising to the spine base. The dust jacket is a perfect example in pristine condition without flaws. A true US first printing rarely found in such beautiful condition.

Extremely early (4th) printing of the First American Edition from Oct. 1998 of the very first book in this beloved series.

Hardcover book has the patterned purple paper & red quarter cloth-wrapped spine. Condition is VG-/G+, marred by these flaws: 1) mild rubbing, especially to lower extremities, 2) heavy bumping at heel of spine, very slight at all corners, 3) light, random spotting to external page edges, 4) former owner's bookplate inside front cover, 5) front hinge beginning to crack at title page. Else, completely clean inside, pages creamy white with NO foxing. Binding strong & straight.

NY: Scholastic, Date: 1998. Book Club Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 1998 Scholastic 1st (and possibly Book Club) Edition, 1st printing with a full number line. It is in F/F condition. Compared to the first printings, this is distinctly different in the following ways: 1. It has purple/black boards, not embossed boards 2. "JK Rowling" (not just Rowling) is at the top of the spine. 3. Similar to true 1st editions of the book, there is no number "1" inside a herald-like border on the spine of either the HB or the DJ. 4. On the copyright page is the full number line. 5. Unlike most book club editions, the DJ is priced at $17.95. The original price of the true first edition is $16.95 6. The DJ is flat-printed, not embossed as in the first pressings. Nonetheless, it appears to be a rare, early, unread edition and, therefore, a great value. 1998.

Harry Potter spent ten long years living with Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, an aunt and uncle whose outrageous favoritism of their perfectly awful son Dudley leads to some of the most inspired dark comedy since Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. But fortunately for Harry, he's about to be granted a scholarship to a unique boarding school called THE HOGWORTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY, where he will become a school hero at the game of Quidditch (a kind of aerial soccer played high above the ground on broomsticks), he will make some wonderful friends, and, unfortunately, a few terrible enemies. For although he seems to be getting your run-of-the-mill boarding school experience (well, ok, even that's pretty darn out of the ordinary), Harry Potter has a destiny that he was born to fulfill. A destiny that others would kill to keep him from. Scholastic Press (October 1, 1998) ISBN 0590353403 9780590353403 [US]

New York: Scholastic, Date: 1998. First Printing. Hardcover. As New/as new. Mary Grandpre. Octavo, 309 pages, black. boards, appears unread; in a mylar dj protector. The First Printing, with complete number line, in a revised state of the dust jacket with a variant of no price on the front flap, and with the numeral '1' at top of spine, and a new review from Publishers Weekly of dj. Also, the text on the lower dj flap tells of J. K. Rowling's hard times and prizes. Scholastic used the artwork of a single illustrator across the series: Mary Grandpre. To [Arthur A.] Levine this is part of the image and branding of the series. He noted ' ... I have always said this is a classic book. This is a book that you remember when you're thirty-five and you remember when you were ten. And that was the book that changed your life. There's continuity there - when you see that on your shelf you think, wow this is that book ...' ." - [ Errington A4(c) note - reporting 35,000 copies in the first printing].

New York, New York, U.S.A.: Arthur a Levine, Date: 1998. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. The first book in the series introduces boy wizard Harry Potter. We believe this to be a book club edition with the following points of issue: a full number line is followed by "8 9/9 0/0 01 02." "Printed in the U.S.A. 23" and then "First American edition, October 1998" appear below the number line. Boards are black (not embossed with the diamond pattern) with a maroon spine. Dust jacket is priced at $17.95. The bar code section on the jacket is cream with nothing printed above the smaller bar code. The dust jacket also features a Publishers Weekly review on the back cover. The lettering is not embossed and is a dull brown color on both the front cover and the spine. The spine of both the book and the dust jacket lack a "Year 1" badge. The jacket has the author's name as just "Rowling" though the book has "J.K." above "Rowling." This particular copy is in beautiful condition and is exceptionally clean with no writing, marks, underlining, or bookplates. No remainder marks. Not an ex-library copy. The spine is tight and crisp, and the corners are square. Boards are clean, flat and true with no evidence of wear. Dust jacket is not price-clipped and shows minimal edge wear but does have some bumping to the upper spine and some creasing along the top and bottom ...

The Fine DJ has two .2 cm professionally repaired tears at the spine ends and minor rubbing along some of the edges and upper and lower folds.
