First edition, 8th print, flat-signed by JK Rowling in blue pen to the half-title page. In very fine condition and unread. No toning to the pages which remain white. Board edges, corners and spine foot and tip all sharp and firm. Note that the Raincoast book is clothed in a Bloomsbury jacket that is fine bar for a small crease to the inflap. The book was signed (with four others) at a charity auction hosted for the benefit of the Sick Kids Friends Foundation at the Signet Library, Edinburgh on 8 December 2004; images of the tickets, programmes and invitation can be provided.
