No later trade editions, book club editions, reprints, or paperbacks. Eight books are also true first editions (first printings, with "1" in the number lines, of first trade editions). All books in the main series (1-7) are true first editions except Books 1 and 2. Very hard to find such a set online.

A play, not a novel, but based on an original story by JK Rowling and written by Jack Thorne. Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them (2001), 2nd Printing, UNREAD. Comes in the original first-state slipcase of the true first edition box set, not the second-state slipcase.

Not easy to find in high-grade unused 1st/1st state. All books and jackets FINE (truly like-new) or NR-VERY FINE (close to brand-new). All books show excellent strong bindings with no spine leans.

Remarkably, for a large set of children's books, there are no owner names or inscriptions, no interior markings, no highlighting/underlining. No sunning or extremely minor sunning to page edges. The UNREAD books feel never fully opened, with good resistance in the hinges.

Bright jackets with great color and no tears, chips, creases, fading, soiling, discoloration; extremely minor edge and corner wear. See all my Harry Potter listings. Is a virtually flawless copy, new or like-new and probably never read.

Fine (F) is a copy with no large defects, but is not as pristine as a very fine copy. It may have been read, but with care. Possible minor flaws include a bumped corner, a slightly sunned spine, rubbing, slight soiling, or a very tiny tear.

Very Good (VG) is a copy with two or more small defects. It may be rubbed, have a small tear, a dinged corner, or other minor defect.

Good (G) is a copy with some obvious large defects and/or several small defects. There may be a larger tear in the dustjacket, a large gift inscription, be very sunned, have a creased spine, or have other defects.

Many ex-library books fall into this category. Makes a good reading copy. Fair (F) indicates a copy with very serious defects. It may actually have some loose pages, underlining or highlighting, or be very soiled. Store: I specialize in first-edition fiction (1960s-1990s) and high-grade PSA-graded sports cards (modern).

All sales help fund graduate school. Thanks very much for visiting. Books are packaged with care in combinations of bubble-mailers and boxes to ensure they arrive in the same condition as described in the listing. I'm fair about this, please ask with any questions.
