First edition

The Book: • Edition: True First American Edition (October 1998) • Printing Number: 25th Printing (Number line: 30 29 28 27 26 25). • Visuals: Features the iconic Mary GrandPré illustrations and the "Year 1" badge on the spine. Condition Details: • Interior: Immaculate. The pages are crisp, white, and completely free of writing, foxing, or "dog-eared" corners. The binding is tight and feels unread. • Dust Jacket: Original jacket included. It shows light, authentic shelf wear/softening along the top and bottom edges, but remains vibrant with no major tears or fading. • Hardboards: Excellent condition with the classic embossed diamond pattern. Why this copy? While many 1990s copies were heavily read by children, this specific book has been remarkably well-preserved. It’s the perfect "shelf-piece" for a collector who wants the original 1998 aesthetic without the four-figure price tag of a 1st printing.
