J.K. Rowling – Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban – 1 of 14 Working Copies
£9,500.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Bloomsbury, London, in 1999. This is a fine copy. One of fourteen working copies, with Clays LTD., ink stamp dated 05 May 1999 (two months before the original date on 8th July 1999) to the rear pastedown, and the Clays LTD. adhesive ‘Standard EDTN’ sticker. This copy correctly reads ‘Joanne Rowling’ on the copyright page, complete with the one to ten number line. The dust wrapper, illustrated by Cliff Wright, has not been clipped showing the correct £10.99 price. There is no notable wear. The pictorial boards are bright, clean and with only very slight crumpling to the tail edge. This copy is free from previous owners ink, aside from the aforementioned publishers stamp. The text blocks are bright, clean and free from foxing. Overall, this is a fine and incredibly scarce working copy of Rowling’s third Harry Potter title.
