Signed first impression. A a near-fine, signed first edition of the fourth Harry Potter book by J.K. Rowling, recounting Harry's adventures during the Triwizard Tournament and featuring perhaps the most terrifying encounter with Lord Voldemort from all the series. This book was the first of the author's works to significantly increase in length, a trend carried on through the subsequent three Harry Potter titles, much to the delight of children and the horror of some bedtime-reading parents...
The book is accompanied by the 'Golden Ticket' from the The Howarts Express Book Tour, at Kidderminster Station, Severn Valley Railway, dated 8th July, preceding that of the Harrods one on the 17th of the same month.
First edition, first impression, signed by the author on the dedication page, 8vo (207 x 126 mm, 8¼ x 5 in), 'Golden Ticket' from the Harrod's book launch loosely inserted, together with the purchase invoice dated 17/07/00, the now usual age-toning but otherwise fine; publisher's pictorial boards, matching dust-jacket, spine faded, a hint of rubbing to top edge, otherwise near-fine.
