Artist Cliff Wright, who designed the book cover for
Chamber of Secrets is putting up for sale a never-before-seen unused sketch he created for the cover of
Prisoner of Azkaban back in 1999. The one-of-a-kind sketch, which features Harry and Hermione on a flying hippogriff, will be available for purchase for £8,500 at the Great Art Fair at Alexandra Palace until Sunday, according to the
Daily Mail.
According to Wright:
Quote:
In some ways I prefer the sketch to what ended up on the cover. It's more dynamic: in the final version, the hippogriff is not moving quite so fast. JK Rowling herself faxed over an image of what she thought the hippogriff should look like.
