Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
First UK Edition, First Printing, Hardback, Bloomsbury 1998 J.K. Rowling
A near fine book in a pristine first state dust jacket, with a full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. A lovely copy without any colour fading, it is clearly unread with sharp corners and a tight binding, there is however some very minor shelf lean and some slight toning to the page edges (as is always the case). Internally there are no ownership inscriptions, no dog eared pages and no marks of any kind. There is some minor bruising to the spine base, but overall it still very nearly qualifies as a book in fine condition.
The original unclipped first edition, first-state dust jacket is in pristine condition with full colours and no creasing or shelf wear. The book comes housed in a blue clamshell box made purposely for this book, with the title and author’s name printed in gold leaf to the spine.
