    Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone.
    Stock Code 113618
    London, Bloomsbury, 1997

    Current price$15,830.00
    A near-fine example of the correct first UK Bloomsbury paperback edition. This copy has all the important issue points, with the Wendy Cooling review to the front panel, the Philosopher's printing error to the rear panel, '1 wand' repeated on page 53, and with the correct 10-1 number sequence found on the copyright page and no space between 'r' and '1' on Thomas Taylor 1997.

    One of just 5,150 paperback copies of the first impression, published on the same day as the incredibly rare hardback.

    First edition, first impression, paperback issue, with '1 wand' repeated on page 53; 8vo; some age-toning to text block (as usual), else fine; original pictorial wrappers by Cliff Wright, Wendy Cooling's review to the lower front cover, and 'philospher's' misspelling to back cover, a hint of rubbing to outer corners, fading to spine, otherwise near-fine.

    Errington A1(aa).
