| | |  J.K. Rowling donates signed Deathly Hallows deluxe edition to charity
Author J.K. Rowling donated a signed copy of the deluxe U.S. edition of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to the Little Auction that Could, the proceeds from which will benefit a shelter for abused and neglected children set up by the organisation's head, Karla Preissman.
We have received photos of the autographed book, which can be seen below. 
Several of the books, including Jo's, will be auctioned through eBay from November 9-18 via bidders winning 'phone tickets' to bid during the Laughing Out Loud For Literacy show at the Elliott Museum in Stuart, Florida on November 20. One phone bidder for each of the top 12 books will be invited to participate in the live auction. | |

I got them when they were on sale for around $13 last summer!

I have the HBP deluxe edition, which included the box, the jacket art (of Harry and Dumbledore in Bob Odgen's memory going to the Gaunt house), and a coloured photo of Bella and Narcissa walking toward Spinner's End in the beginning of the book, all done by Mary Grandpre. There are also larger versions of each chapter photo (this is the US edition), at the end of the book.
