First deluxe editions, first impressions, of the complete Harry Potter series. Complete in seven volumes bound in cloth with color pictorial onlays, gilt edges, ribbon bookmarks, and gilt stamping. Fine. This series is one of the most sought-after versions of the beloved children's books (after the correct first editions). These books are attractively designed for collectors and had comparatively small print runs in the thousands, rather than millions of copies.

First edition, third printing of the rarest book in the Harry Potter series, a cornerstone of young adult literature, and one of the best-selling books of all time. Octavo, original illustrated boards. Signed by the illustrator Thomas Taylor with an original drawing of Harry Potter on the dedication page. At the time of the book's publication in 1996, illustrator Thomas Taylor had just graduated from art school and was working at Heffers Children's Bookshop in Cambridge. At Heffers, Taylor educated himself on the children's book market and its major publishers and decided to submit a portfolio of his illustrations to the offices of Bloomsbury Publishing, including several drawings of dragons and wizards. Taylor heard back from Bloomsbury's editor, Barry Cunningham (who had recently decided to take a chance on publishing Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone after it had been rejected by twelve other publishers) almost immediately. Cunningham phoned him at Heffers and asked if he could create a design for the cover of a relatively unknown author's first book about a schoolboy wizard. He sent Taylor an incomplete manuscript of the book and, after two days, Taylor had a final product: a watercolor painting of a young Harry Potter with his lightning-bolt scar standing next to the Hogwarts Express on Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. In fine condition. The first novel in the Harry Potter series and Rowling's debut novel, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone follows Harry Potter, a young wizard who discovers his magical heritage on his eleventh birthday when he receives a letter of acceptance to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The book was first published in the United Kingdom on June 26, 1997 by Bloomsbury and in the United States the following year by Scholastic Corporation under the title Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. The book reached the top of the New York Times list of best-selling fiction in August 1999 and stayed near the top of that list for much of 1999 and 2000. It has sold in excess of 120 million copies, making it one of the best-selling books of all time. The majority of reviews of the popular book were favorable, revering Rowling's imagination, humor, simple, direct style and clever plot construction. Rowling's style has been compared to that of Jane Austen (her favorite author), Roald Dahl (whose works dominated children's stories before the appearance of Harry Potter), and even the Ancient Greek story-teller Homer. The first book in the series was followed by six sequels published on an annual basis between 1997 and 2000. The series has sold more that 500 million copies worldwide and has been â‹translated into 80 languages, â‹making it the best-selling book series in history and among history's most translated literary works. ⋠The last four books in the series consecutively set records as the fastest-selling books of all time, where the final installment, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, sold roughly fifteen million copies worldwide within twenty-four hours of its release. With twelve million books printed in the first U.S. run, it also holds the record for the highest initial print run for any book in history. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was adapted into the 2001 fantasy film of the same name directed by Chris Columbus, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, and starring Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter, Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley, and Emma Watson as Hermione Granger. Warner Bros. bought the film rights to the book in 1999 for a reported £1 million ($1.65 million) and the film was released in November 2001 in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Canada and Taiwan. It was a critical and commercial success, grossing $974 million at the box office worldwide during its initial run, and over $1 billion with subsequent re-releases. It became the highest-grossing film of 2001 and remains one of the highest-grossing films of all...

First paperback edition, later impression of the rarest book in the Harry Potter series, a cornerstone of young adult literature, and one of the best-selling books of all time. Octavo, original illustrated wrappers. Presentation copy, inscribed by J.K. Rowling on the half-title page, "To Ashleigh Innes with best wishes JK Rowling." Additionally signed by cover artist Thomas Taylor with an original drawing of Harry Potter casting a spell with his wand on the half-title page. At just 23 years old, Thomas Taylor had recently graduated from art school and was working at Heffers Children's Bookshop in Cambridge when he submitted a portfolio of fantasy illustrations-including drawings of wizards and dragons-to Bloomsbury Publishing. Not long after, Barry Cunningham, the editor who had taken a chance on J. K. Rowling's debut novel after it had been rejected by twelve other publishers, phoned Taylor and commissioned him to design the book's cover. Taylor received an incomplete manuscript of the novel and, within two days, produced the now-iconic watercolor painting depicting a young Harry Potter, scar visible, standing beside the Hogwarts Express at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. This artwork appeared on the first printing of the first edition, published June 26, 1997, and has since become one of the most recognizable images in modern literary history-launching both Rowling's series and Taylor's illustration career. In near fine condition. Rare and desirable with a wonderful original drawing of Harry Potter.
