Lot #37: Harry Potter And The Half-blood Prince Rare Errors 1st Edition

Lot #37: Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince Rare Errors 1st Edition. Sold as is.
The product is an extremely rare collectible first edition of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, published by Scholastic in July 2005. This specific American First Edition hardcover novel is particularly unique due to the following:


1. First American Edition, July 2005

2. Original numeric “owl” error on page 100 (more widely produced but also rare copies have this error on page 99). Ron & Hermoine declares the presence of “11 O.W.L.s, whereas this error was fixed for future productions to be 10 O.W.L.s

3. Corrected in later printings, this unique first edition ends on page 652, while the correct total of pages in future printings is 672.



Because these errors were corrected in future publications, first edition copies containing them are considered extremely rare and collectible. The presence of the OWL error and final page number are the key indicators of this specific productions value as a collectible.
