Description: A beautiful hardcover first edition/second printing copy of HP and the Prisoner of Azkaban issued by Bloomsbury UK. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling (HP and the Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, etc.) Hardcover First Edition - Second Printing London: Bloomsbury UK, 1999. £10.99 cover price front flap. Cover art by Cliff Wright upon both the dust jacket and laminated boards. Same size as the first edition, 8 x 5.5 x 1", and same year as the first printing, 1999. Only HP and the Philosopher's Stone and HP and the Chamber of Secrets are listed as the previous novels of the series, and the copyright year is 1999. NOTE: This is NOT a Ted Smart, Raincoast-Canadian or an Australian edition. Fine and in Fine Dust Jacket: A superior copy with only the typical age-toning to the text block which is common with these early HP editions printed prior to 2000. Because of the exceptional condition, priced to sell. NOTE on the First Editions of the Harry Potter books: The true first editions/first printings of the first four Harry Potter books were issued by Bloomsbury UK from 1997 to 2000. In the early 2000's, Bloomsbury began reissuing the books in large print editions. They can be nice alternatives to the true first editions. This is in fact the only first UK hardcover printing with the original Cliff Wright artwork outside of the first hardcover edition issued in 1999 which these days is running about $1000 to $4000, depending upon which state. NOTE: All modern books with dust jackets come with dust jacket covers.ALSO: The picture is the actual item for sale. (The picture is NOT a stock photo.) IMPORTANT NOTE: All sales are generally FINAL. I do NOT accept returns because of buyer's remorse, "it was a gift but the recipient already had it", "I found the same book(s) at a better price", or "I found the tiniest little shortcoming and I'm a collector who desires everything to be pristine". I am not selling new items to compete with other retailers.
