Post More on the HBP key

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?

Any relevance to the locked door in the Dept of Mysteries?

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.

Hey that's the key to the Chamber of Secret Sock Drawer...I was wondering where I'd lost that...

Seriously...I don't think it means anything...but key to that department of Mysteries door...hmm...sounds interesting I'd forgotten about that...

Or maybe its just symbolic of something else...this book is the key to...fill in the blank...you never know...but I don't think Borders knows anything we don't...*rushes to apply for a job at the bookstore*

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.

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 totally agree with you, but remember Borders = WaldenBooks - same company.
