Post ‘PoA’ sketch on sale

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.
You can view the sketch here in our galleries.
