Harry Potter Series - Complete set first hardcover printings of the UK Bloomsbury Adult edition
Seven-volume UK Bloomsbury hardcover adult edition set of the Harry Potter series with photographic dust jacket cover images by Michael Wildsmith and a photograph of the author on the back. All first printings. The first five volumes of this edition were published in a print run of 12,500 copies on October 10, 2004; the subsequent two volumes were released simultaneously with the trade edition in 2005 and 2007 in a larger print run.
All volumes are bound in black cloth with gilt lettering on the spine. The books are in near fine to fine condition. 'Philosopher's Stone' and 'Half-Blood Prince' have a few dust spots on the book edge, and some of the spine ends are slightly pushed. The dust jackets are also in near fine to fine condition, some with a slight waviness at the edges, but without fading or wear.
A very nice set, difficult to find complete.
