Publisher's practice

How Bloomsbury Publishing marked its first editions

Bloomsbury's most collected books, the Harry Potter first impressions, are identified on the copyright page: the first publication year as the only date and a number line running all the way down to 1.

  • A first impression of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (1997) has 1997 as the only date on the copyright page and the full line "10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1".
  • First-impression copies repeat "1 wand" in the school equipment list on page 53, and the rear cover misspells the title as "Philospher's".
  • The first impression hardback ran to about 500 copies, most of them supplied to libraries.

Read the full guide to Bloomsbury Publishing first editions, decade by decade, and check your copy's copyright page against it. Our number line decoder reads the printing from the row of numbers.
