Housed in a bespoke collector's clamshell box, fleece-lined within and lettered in gilt to the spine in a typeface uniform with that used for the individual books; the box is designed to complement the deluxe cloth editions of the Harry Potter series (external dimensions 24cm x 16cm). Fine/as new. A superb presentation of these three supplemental items of Hogwartiana. A pair of charitable publications issued in March 2001 (for Comic Relief), being amusing replicas of school textbooks borrowed from Hogwarts Library. The final volume, which had been mentioned in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, was published in hardback in 2008 (with proceeds again to a charity, Lumos), following the auction of a manuscript version which was bought by Amazon in 2007 for a world-record $3 million.

London : Bloomsbury, 1997 - 2006. Seven volumes, octavo, illustrated wrappers; slight sunning to spine of the second title, light handing wear, a near fine set. A rare complete set of the first seven titles in the Harry Potter series, including the true first edition, first printing, of the first and rarest volume, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, a classic of modern children's literature, with the subsequent volumes of the series in the matching illustrated wrapper editions. Printed in London on 30 June 1997, this first publication in the Harry Potter series would spawn a multi-billion dollar industry of publications, films and merchandise, whose influence only continues to permeate popular culture. Five hundred copies were published in hardback, of which 300 or so were distributed to UK schools. A trade paperback was issued simultaneously in an edition of 5,150 copies. The seven titles in the series comprise Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone; Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets; Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban; Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire; Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire; Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix; Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

A clean, fine set. The deluxe issue is a larger format, in decorative cloth binding. Harry Potter's award-winning wizarding adventures have had an unrivalled impact in popular culture today; indeed, some experts have referred to adults between the ages of roughly 20-30 years old as 'the Harry Potter generation', who are seen to hold markedly different values to their parents. Harry Potter is a series of many genres, including fantasy, bildungsroman, and the British school story (which includes elements of mystery, thriller, adventure, and romance). According to Rowling, the main theme of the books is death - although prejudice, corruption, and madness can be seen as dominant motifs.…
