Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
UK Uncorrected Proof, J.K. Rowling, Bloomsbury 1998, Fine
Uncorrected proof copy of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, One of only 200-300 copies to exist, many of which are believed to have been read and discarded by the reviewers who Bloomsbury sent the books out to pre-publication.
This is an unread copy in exceptional condition. A fine copy, with sharp edges and an incredibly square and tight binding. The slightest mark on the front cover below the word uncorrected otherwise a pristine copy. The page edges are white and crisp, no internal writing or marks of any kind. No bowing to the front wrapper, no creasing to the spine – this book has hardly been opened, never mind read. It comes housed in a blue quarter leather clamshell box made by the Chelsea Bindery specifically for this book.
