I'd seen the other cover once before but couldn't find a link back to it for some reason.<BR/><BR/>Do you collect the British versions of the books as well as the ones sold in the U.S.? I know a couple of collectors who try to get first editions from the U.K. as well as from the U.S. just for the sake of completeness.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-44226206618286721002007-03-31T08:16:00.000-05:002007-03-31T08:16:00.000-05:00Cip, I'm with you on Potter and Brown.

I couldn't find the link I'd seen that showed the version that's going to be sold here.<BR/><BR/>I'm with Leno on the "who cares" part, for sure, and I'm not going to be buying it. I tried reading part of the first book but lost interest pretty quickly, although I can understand the appeal of the series to fantasy Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-19737524484834881392007-03-31T04:23:00.000-05:002007-03-31T04:23:00.000-05:00This is the British front cover, not that appealin...This is the British front cover, not that appealing although it will definatley be in my collection within hours of it going on sale. The adults cover is much more attractive and intriguing.<BR/>see here: http://www.bookgrouponline.com/forum/ (look in childrens section)katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647610491252326847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-35601821141113085622007-03-31T00:29:00.000-05:002007-03-31T00:29:00.000-05:00And also one where no one can spell Solzhenitsyn c...And also one where no one can spell <B>Solzhenitsyn</B> correctly, apparently!Ciprianohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00254338542624853230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-86280777686605313052007-03-31T00:27:00.000-05:002007-03-31T00:27:00.000-05:00I'm with you, Sam.I have never yet read a Potter b...I'm with you, Sam.<BR/>I have never yet read a Potter book. <BR/>Then again, neither have I read Dan Brown!<BR/>BLASPHEMY!<BR/>What planet am I <I>from?</I><BR/><BR/>[We live in a world where no one reads Solzhenytsyn, anymore!]Ciprianohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00254338542624853230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-28344647529174788722007-03-31T00:26:00.000-05:002007-03-31T00:26:00.000-05:00I think you know my opinion of Harry Potter so I w...I think you know my opinion of Harry Potter so I won't get into it, but it's interesting because that's not the picture they sent us at the store. I wonder if this is the UK version? <BR/><BR/>I was watching Leno the other night and he said he had a clip of the cover unveiling - when they unveiled it, the title read, "Harry Potter and Who Cares; You Know You're Going to Buy it Anyway." :)Janda/Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16754631494233387294noreply@blogger.com
