Only "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is listed as 'also available', indicating a 1998 printing date. With Joanne Rowling as the copyright holder and a picture of the Young Wizard on the back board. ***Please note that there is no dustwrapper with this copy. ***A very good copy in pictorial colour illustrated boards. The boards are clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Bottom corner tips very slightly creased, otherwise corners sharp. There is a slight reading lean to the binding, but the spine is tight. Apart from some fading to the spine colours, the colours of the book are nice and bright. Internally, the book is also very good, with no inscriptions, ink marks or annotations. There are some light yellowing / foxing marks to the title page and page opposite. There is also some straining between these pages where the book has been opened flat. There is some slight wrinkling to the fore-edge of a few pages near the centre of the page block (please see scans). The paper stock is lightly tanned as usual. No dustwrapper. ***223 pages. 206mm x 136mm. ***An early fourteenth impression of the true first edition of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", in very good original condition. Being such a popular children's book, copies of the early printings in reasonable condition (albeit with the above mentioned faults) are far from easy to find now. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
