Great Gift Ideas For The Harry Potter Fan On Your List

If you are not a Harry Potter fan yourself, you undoubtedly know someone who is. I am so excited to watch the movies with my daughter who is finally showing interest in doing so.  She knows a lot about the movies, books and merchandise but until you read the books and see the movie you don't understand. I am planning on watching it with her this Sunday. CAN'T WAIT!  Here is my list for the Potter fan on your list that will also be on my Holiday Gift Guide this year coming out soon!

 Harry Potter - The Unofficial Guide to the Collectibles of Our Favorite Wizard
To Purchase
Since 1997 with the publication of the first book, Harry Potter has cast a spell over millions of Muggles around the world--not the least of all bewitched collectors. Harry Potter: The Unofficial Guide to the Collectibles of Our Favorite Wizard conjures rare, extraordinary and magical treasures sprung from the Potter books and movies, and even the imaginations of fans. In its enchantingly visual pages, you'll discover delightful riches including author J.K. Rowling's writing chair that sold at auction for almost $400,000, first-edition books, original art, movie posters, film props, exclusives, limited-edition items, fun fandom pieces, and other wonders to behold.

So with a whisper of "accio" and a flick of your wand, summon forth the fascinating, the fantastical and the fabulous found in Harry Potter: The Unofficial Guide to the Collectibles of Our Favorite Wizard.



The 411: 

We all know this franchise is big and has made billions but this book takes an in depth view of how much some of the items from the movie sold for at auction as well as how much you can purchase them for now.
 
Can you believe that J. K. Rowling is the first author to make 1 Billion! That is a lot of dough for a book idea that came to her during a train ride. We should all take some time to be silent and see what we can come up with.
  
Harry Potter has sold of 400 million copies around the world and is published in 55 languages. According to this book the very first book at auction sold for $43,750.00 WOW!

The chapters are broken into categories Books, Movie Posters, Movie Props, Harry Pottery, Harry Potter Merchandise, Limited Edition Collectibles, Fandom, and Potter Inspired Collectibles. 
 

It is full of information, colorful photos, and facts. Any fan of the books, movies or pop culture collector will love this.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban: The Illustrated Edition

To Purchase

For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort.


Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkaban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts . . . he's at Hogwarts."


Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.
The 411: 

This is the 3rd book by J.K. Rowling in the Harry Potter Series. It is a large, hard cover book measuring 9.2 x 1.4 x 10.8 inches with whimsical illustrations by Jim Kay that bring the book to life. It has a satin purple book mark to help you keep your place. DO NOT dog ear the pages! That makes me crazy. 

This is a great addition to any Harry Potter collector. 

Here are just a few of my favorite photos in no particular order:
