If you’re anything like me, or you’re around my age you will have likely read the Harry Potter books growing up. For any longtime readers of my blog, you’ll be aware that I am a massive Harry Potter fan. I’ve read the books and seen the films innumerable times. I’ve been the Wizarding World Of Harry Potter at Universal Studios. I’ve done the Warner Brothers Studio Tour Twice. I even had a Harry Potter Sweet table at my wedding (if this is something you’d like to attempt for yourself you can read my full post on it here!)
Rare books by J. K. Rowling, including first editions and signed first edition copies of the Harry Potter books.In the post, I am going to cover all the things that will help you figure out whether you’re Harry Potter book is a first edition as well as other signs your book could be worth more than you might think. Next , how do you tell whether your copy, which may look very similar to the one pictured above, is really a valuable first edition? Adrian Harrington began trading in 1971, as part of Harrington Brothers in the Chelsea Antiques Market on London's fashionable King's Road. He moved to Kensington Church Street in 1997, and in 2014 Adrian relocated to the historic Hall's Bookshop in Royal Tunbridge Wells, occupying the first floor of this iconic building near The Pantiles area of the town. Hall's remains on the ground floor offering an exceptional range of quality used books.
First editions of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" are not particularly valuable because so many were printed A hardcover first edition of ‘Harry Potter and The Chamber Secrets’ will often sell for thousands of pounds.The first Harry Potter book to be published was "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's (Sorcerer's) Stone." Bloomsbury Publishing first printed the book in 1997. A true first edition can be identified using a printing number, which can be found at the very beginning of the book. Bloomsbury Publishing use a reverse number system to identify when a book was printed. If the number ends with one ( for example 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1) you may have a first edition As Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone is the first in series, first editions of this are worth the most so this is what we’ll look at first. However, if you still have your copies on a bookshelf somewhere gathering dust there is a possibility one or two of them might be worth something.
Rigidly maintaining control over how her characters and stories were represented has created a strange and previously almost unheard of situation where the films and the books travel hand in hand with very little deviation. Most people's idea of Harry the boy wizard is an image not terribly distant from Daniel Radcliffe, their Hermione not too different from Emma Watson. This, amongst other things, the most important of which being sheer readability has resulted in a massive degree of collectability.Looking for the perfect Harry Potter inspired gift?
