We previously informed you that speculation had arisen due to the appearance of a key on a promotional banner for ' Half-Blood Prince' at Borders Bookstores.
A clearer picture of that key can be seen below.
The previous blurry photo can be seen here.

First post, yay! That key has a fancy handle but a simple key pattern. Could that mean anything?

Hmm... It's not an ordinary key to say the least. Sort of like an old castle or manor key. But you never know. It could open a chest or a drawer or something similar to that.

on www.jkrowling.com there are a ton of keys in different places, also could it have to do with the key in the first book, i know, it's pretty far fetched.

The promotional material isn't made by Borders though, is it? I thought it was provided by the publishers seeing as they'd want control over what sort of things are printed in relation to HBP.

The handle looks like a heart with a tail if you look at it closely. Quote: Hey that's the key to the Chamber of Secret Sock Drawer...I was wondering where I'd lost that... You have a key to get your socks?

You have a key to get your socks? Doesn't everyone have a key to get to their socks? hahahahahha I agree with you though about it looking like a heart, it doesnt look like any company symbol, and I like the manor hey as stated in one of the other posts. in a different promotional item there was a shabby manor. might tie in. this key leav es room for soo many theories. I curse their genius promotional minds!

I think it is irrelevant. Maybe it is borders symbol or something like that.
