Hardcover UK, first printing and true first edition. The Clay Ltd UK "Children's" Edition" with all first printing points present: "First published in Great Britain in 2003 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc" with "First Edition" both stated on the copyright page. The UK Children's Editions are rare because they were banned for export to the US because of the contemporaneous US edition by Scholastic. Fine (unread) copy in near fine jacket with light crinkling at the top and bottom jacket edges of the spine panel (caused by shelving, it's a heavy book) with shallow bumping at bottom of spine (again, a shelving issue). Otherwise, the jacket is clean without marks or tears with the 16.99 GBP price intact on lower front flap. Page block is square, bright and dent-free without previous owner's marks or personalization. An excellent, collectible copy. Illustrated boards identical with the dust jacket illustration by Jason Cockcroft. Not a book club, remainder or ex-library copy. Published June 21st, 2003, the fifth book featuring Harry Potter and his friends' fifth year at Hogwarts. This Children's Edition featuring the full color, wrap-around jacket by Jason Cockcroft. Award History: 2003 Bram Stoker Award Winner for Superior Achievement in a Work for Young Readers; 2004 Locus Poll Award Nominee (lost to The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett); 2004 Prometheus Award Nominee (lost to Sims by F. Paul Wilson); Amazon's Top Ten Books of 2003 - Science Fiction & Fantasy; Amazon's Top 50 Books of 2003; Barnes & Noble Best Books of 2003 - Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror.
