Rowling's official authentication hologram. The bookplate shows minor wear. Included with the bookplate is a later printing paperback copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Signed post 2007.

$1,500.00 SOLD

Sorcerer's Stone 1st Printing Hardcover

First printing of Sorcerer's Stone, Scholastic hardcover. No first edition Guardian dust jacket. The dust jacket included is a later release used to protect the book only. The book is in VG condition with minor shelf wear. No internal writing or signatures.

Scholastic Scroll Signed and Framed Bookplate

VERY RARE, UNUSED, signed Scholastic scroll bookplate. It is hard to find these bookplates that have not been used. This one is still on the original backing and has been beautifully framed and matted. The frame paper backing was removed to verify authenticity of the bookplate. Signed by J.K. Rowling.

$1250.00 SOLD

Sorcerer's Stone Hardcover SIGNED in 1999 #1

Signed in 1999 during J.K. Rowling's second US tour for Prisoner of Azkaban. This is a fantastic example of a 1999 tour signature. Many are rushed and on the sloppy side as Rowling was required to sign thousands of books within a short time.

 

Signed at Books of Wonder on October 14th, 1999.

The book is in VG condition with minor shelf wear to the book and jacket. It shows light reading wear. The text block has minor handling wear. No internal writing except for the autograph.

$1,750.00 SOLD

Sorcerer's Stone Hardcover SIGNED in 1999 #2

Signed in 1999 during J.K. Rowling's second US tour for Prisoner of Azkaban. This is a bold example of a 1999 tour signature and may represent an earlier signature due to the size of the signature, specifically the O. Many 1999 signed books are rushed and on the sloppy side as Rowling was required to sign thousands of books within a short time.

 

Signing location and exact date are unknown. October 1999.
