Career of Evil

London: Sphere, 2015. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. VARIANT COPY. A very fine and apparently rare 1st printing (full number string)/1st state example of Career of Evil by Robert Galbraith (J K Rowling), 2015, which has all the called for issue points. A bibliographical note: there were 250 signed copies, copyright J K Rowling. Other than being unsigned this copy appears identical to those: copyright J. K. Rowling and with the quotes to the lower panel in white with the sources printed in gold beneath. The vast majority of 1st printings appear to be copyright Robert Galbraith Ltd and in a second state jacket, which doesn't include sources for the quotes. The most likely explanation is that the first printing included a presumably small number of additional copies, over and above the 250, which were subsequently offered for sale There is a BBC Radio 2 Book Club sticker to the upper panel of this one (I've seen one other such) but this is the true trade first, not a book club edition. Photographs/scans available upon request.
