Charity Auction: Paul's marked up copy of Sorceror's Stone!

Hey guys!

I know this isn’t my personal blog or anything, but this was just too cool to contain and I thought some of you might be interested.

This past fall, I took a copy of Harry Potter and the Sorceror’s Stone and added commentary and notes in the margins of the WHOLE BOOK! This book is now being auctioned off and all proceeds from the auction will be donated to First Book!

The auction was put together by the nice folks at Shooting Stars Mag and you can view and bid on it here!!!

This book doesn’t only feature my commentary though! It also contains the following:

Chapter 12 marked up by Melissa Anelli, webmistress of the Leaky Cauldron and author of NY Times bestseller, Harry, A History.

8 original drawings by Frankie Franco III, illustrator and host of Pottercast

Alternate book jacket illustrated by Joe DeGeorge of Harry and the Potters

Commemorative barf bag

Whomever purchases this book will note that Andrew Slack comments for the first 2 or 3 pages of the Halloween chapter. We were on a trip together and I think he fell asleep and never got to finish. Haha!

Check out some of these awesome scans!!!!

Seriously guys, I blew $24 just buying a new copy of this book (after spending a month looking for the hard-back in a thrift store!!!), so it better sell for at least that much! Did I mention that best-selling author and HP-expert Melissa Anelli writes commentary on the freakin’ Mirror of Erised chapter!?!?!? OMG!

I know it’s really self-congratulatory, but this book is REALLY, REALLY COOL! And the money goes to a good cause so don’t be shy about bidding!

Once again, the auction is HERE and it runs until Saturday, February 7th at 11:59 P.M. EST!!!

BID NOW!!!!!

Thanks!

I wish I could get this… If I lived on my own I’d probably be risking my rent money for it.
