About this deal

Volume issue in Slipcase ) PLEASE READ the COMPLETE Description DESCRIPTION --- Rowling, J K ( Joanne )(aka Robert Galbraith / Kennilworthy Whisp ) A new special edition boxed set of the complete Harry Potter series, in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone . THREE VOLUME Boxed set: Harry Potter & the Philosopher's (aka Sorcerer's ) Stone; -the Chamber of Secrets; -the Prisoner of Azkaban -THREE Books in a Slipcase ( Box / Boxed / Slipcased Set )( Vol. 1, 2, 3 ) To give some idea of the hype, there was a midnight launch, and there are many signed first-edition copies as a consequence. People were also starting to cotton on to the idea that books could be seen as collector’s items in the future. Ironically, this means numerous versions are in good condition today, so they’re not worth much. In terms of values, copies will likely go for a low three-figure sum.

Then there’s the film series, which was released while the books were still coming out (2001-11). They helped to solidify its status as a story that was likely to last, leading on to the second series of films which also serve as a semi-prequel ( Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ).

The Harry Potter set will always be a collector’s item, and that is especially true for the rarest first editions. The main characteristics of a UK 1997 first edition first issue are a print line that reads ‘10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1’. Harry Potter is a fantastic series. One might be tempted to think it's overblown or over-rated by its enthusiasts. One would, in fact, be forgiven for taking that impression almost exclusively from the movies; they're enjoyable enough in their own right, but suffer problems of less-than-amazing adaptation and fluctuations in creative vision that make the film series feel somewhat disjointed and less-thoughtful than the books they're based on, and have the added problem of the younger actors and actresses often taking a few films to develop the skills to portray their characters naturally (an occupational hazard of a fantasy epic that relies on child actors, really). The Harry Potter novels, meanwhile, provide an arguably smoother introduction and, subsequently, a more fleshed-out experience in Harry's world, with the earlier, shorter books providing a comfortable and more "episodic" early portion that's great for allowing readers to get their feet wet, becoming gradually more involved and complex until the build-up culminates with the fourth and fifth novels, where the story goes all-in on characterization and worldbuilding detail, presuming the writer to be fully invested by that point, and keeping that level of maturity and intensity right up to the ending of the final volume.

Visit BookSleuth Advanced Reading Copies (ARCs) are the US equivalent, produced for the first three books in the set. Prices for first editions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone have exploded recently as investors and collectors compete to own a true piece of literary history. With the oldest books in the set reaching their 20th year, it’s no surprise that prices are beginning to rise. The first round of children to read the books are now fully-fledged adults, while there’s always another generation that is likely to enjoy the stories in some shape or form. This is especially true when looking at signed versions, although there’s also a good market for some of the later releases in the set.
