Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone – Signed by the main cast

A later hardback printing of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, signed on the first free endpaper by the main cast: Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), Emma Watson (Hermione Granger), Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom), Warwick Davis (Professor Flitwick / Griphook), Jamie Waylett (Crabbe), Joshua Herdman (Goyle), and Devon Murray (Seamus Finnigan).

The final endpaper is inscribed and signed by producer David Heyman: “Oliver, Believe in Magic! David Heyman, Producer”.

The book was signed for 8-year-old Oliver Bingle during the filming in 2003 of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban at Virginia Water Lakes, Surrey — the location of the iconic scene where Harry meets Buckbeak the Hippogriff.

A near fine copy, with the lower spine end very slightly pushed and the upper spine end and corners remaining sharp. A discreet surname of the original owner is penned in the upper left corner of the first endpaper. There is a touch of light finger soiling to the top edge of the final free endpaper, otherwise the interior is clean. The pages show the usual light toning to the edges, consistent with age. The binding is tight and secure.

Complete with the original near fine dust jacket, showing almost no wear, with only minor smudging to the inner side. Accompanied by a handwritten and signed letter from the original owner, adding a charming element of provenance.

With the upcoming release of a new HBO series, copies signed by the original cast are expected to become even more desirable to collectors, making this a particularly attractive example. A rare piece with verified provenance, perfect for collectors of Harry Potter memorabilia.
