This particular book is signed by J.K. Rowling in blue ball point pen to the dedication page. Signed copies of Prisoner of Azkaban are very scarce in any printing, with the popularity of Harry Potter, Jo had stopped doing as many signing events as she had done previously and instead Bloomsbury started sending out signed bookplates to book stores to help promote the book. This is a 2000 variation of Rowling’s signature and was signed at Perth Railway Station on July 11, 2000, three days following the publication of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as apart of her Hogwarts Express Book Tour.
