| | Signed Deathly Hallows to be auctioned at charity ball
The Perthshire Advertiser is reporting that a signed first edition copy of Deathly Hallows will be auctioned off at the Touch of Tartan charity ball on August 29th to benefit the Perth and Kinross Association of Voluntary Service (PKAVS). The book is said to be worth over £500 ($932.90). Quote:
Helen MacKinnon, PKAVS’ marketing and development co-ordinator, said yesterday: “We were really excited to receive this donation from JK Rowling and to have her support.
“As the prize is so outstanding and tickets have sold out, we have decided to open up the bidding on the Harry Potter novel to anyone interested.”
The event will be held at Perth’s Salutation Hotel in Scotland. |

I thought it would cost more too. But that's still a pretty penny to pay for a book!

That's wonderful. I thought it would be worth a bit more being signed.

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
