With all first edition, first printing points present, including the pre-publication bookmark. Published by Bloomsbury Publishing: London: 1999. The second novel in J.K. Rowling's groundbreaking series continues the story of boy wizard Harry Potter and his friends. Runs 251pp. and measures 6.25'' x 9.5''. Bound in pictorial blue cloth boards with gilt lettering. All edges gilt. Includes original dustjacket. Minor toning to outer text block, else fine. A beautifully bound tome from the best selling book series of all time.
