PLEASE SEE & PLEASE READ::: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix — First Edition / First Printing — Rare Hagrid Seating Error (pp. 683–684) Authentic U.S. First Edition / First Printing of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, confirmed by the full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 and “First American edition, July 2003.” This copy includes the rare and documented “Topmost Row / Hagrid Behind Them” continuity error, found only in specific early text block printings. Error Details (Highly Collectible): • Page 683 states the characters are in the “topmost row” of the stands. • Page 684 describes Hagrid “squeezing his way all along the row behind” them. A logical impossibility — this continuity mistake was corrected in later printings, making this early variant desirable among collectors. Key First Edition Points: • Full number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 • Stated First American edition • Original dust jacket • Includes the correct early-print Hagrid row error • True collectible first printing A strong collector copy of Order of the Phoenix, featuring a rare early-print continuity error not present in later editions. A factory/trimming defect from the original bindery NOT reader damage NOT water damage NOT pet damage NOT mishandling This is a printing/bindery production flaw, and it is surprisingly common in thick Harry Potter U.S. first printings (Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince, especially). Ships fast and well-protected from a smoke-free, pet-free home.
