Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
By J.K. Rowling
 
First illustrated edition, first impression. Signed by the illustrator to half-title.
 
Quarto. Original red boards, titles to spine gilt, illustrated endpapers. With the illustrated dust jacket designed by Jim Kay, depicting the Hogwarts Express.
 
A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. One inconspicuous ding to top edge of lower board. The book is otherwise bright and clean throughout, with sharp corners and no inscriptions.
 
Published to great acclaim in October 2015. Jim Kay's rich, atmospheric artwork reimagines J.K. Rowling's world in stunning detail, marking the beginning of Bloomsbury's series of fully illustrated Harry Potter volumes.
 
An attractive and desirable signed example of the first illustrated edition of the book that introduced the modern classic series.
