Step back into the expanding wizarding world with this First American Edition, First Printing hardcover of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling, published in July 2003 by Scholastic’s Arthur A. Levine Books. Identified by the complete number line ending in “1,” this copy represents the very first print run of the fifth installment in one of the most influential literary series of modern times.
Featuring the iconic cover artwork by Mary GrandPré, the volume captures the darker, more mature tone that defines Harry’s fifth year at Hogwarts. As the Ministry of Magic denies Voldemort’s return and tension builds across the wizarding community, this nearly 900-page novel delivers the layered storytelling and emotional depth that helped cement the franchise’s global legacy.
The book presents as a clean, well-preserved reading copy with strong boards and interior pages that remain bright and intact. First printings from this landmark release continue to attract both collectors and devoted readers seeking an authentic early example from the height of the Harry Potter phenomenon.
