This was fascinating. Is it because of the content...or the delivery? It’s so fun to see someone talk about something they are passionate about. Especially when I share that interest.
I went to my local book store after watching your videos and found some really nice books. I've had my HP collection since the first movie was released in 2001 (all soft cover). But now 17 years later I am going to acquire myself a hardcover set thanks to your videos. I thoroughly enjoy watching your channel Peter. Your love for the HP series is very infectious. Keep up the great content!
This makes me very happy to hear! My hope is to inspire fans like yourself to collect and then KEEP COLLECTING. :D Thanks for being here! What did you find?
I found the hardcover house editions and the hardcover editions by Jonny Duddle. I also found some of the illustrated books (which I wish were all available)!
I really enjoy this channel because we get to see these interesting rare harry potter books that most people wouldn't otherwise have the chance to see. Along with learning some interesting tidbits about early publications. Thanks for sharing!
I believe the x’s in the uncorrected proofs are just stand in text for something that’s yet to be confirmed. Publishers do this all the time in manuscripts with things like page numbers on contents pages where the information is likely to change.
I’m not sure why I never jumped into the fantastic story that is of Harry Potter. I have spent the summer reading through the novels (currently on Order of the Phoenix) and this has easily climbed to the top of my favorite series of all time list. You’re videos are fantastic! Love your collection!
Surviving quarantine 2020 by watching all your videos! My favorite book I’ve owned was a Canadian copy of Goblet of Fire when my family sailed to Victoria BC at 12 years old (31 now). No idea what the printing was or anything, the memories from that trip are tired to that book.
I just discovered your channel yesterday and I absolutely love your channel! I love harry potter so so so much and seeing your collection really makes me happy ( and slightly jealous). now i want to start collecting too, though probably in the future. I love how every book has a story and a history. Every time I travel I think I am going to buy a version of the book in another version as a souvenir! Thanks your sharing your awesome collection!
Such interesting facts! I didn’t know of the initial place holder in the uncorrected. Also about the handling of books without gloves. So much goes into the publishing process. Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book of the series. I’m jealous that you have that dust jacket!
I dig up some research and the Filipino edition is one of the rarest translations of all time. Sorcerer's Stone is the only book translated. According to a Reddit user, only 3000 were printed and short number of copies, like the one you have, were existed today with the highest price. Sadly, the other 6 titles were never planned since the translator supposedly have all the series and didn't happen at all.
Yay! Just found you a few days ago and such a fan already. Your passion for HP is unmatched! Would love to see more videos in-depth on cover art across translations
The Potter Collector the message we all get from reading all 7 books is a universal story, and you have it in all translations...It’s like a full circle. Congrats on what you’ve collected! I’m sure a lot has gone on behind the scenes. I think you’ll meet Rowling some day...
Your collection is amazing! I just took the Pottermore quiz and the sorting hat put me in Huffelpuff! Also my patronus is a Mustang! Proud to be a Huffelpuff!
I love this channel! I think you are soooo lucky, I wish I had all that stuff, I am sort of new to Harry Potter I started last year :) I love your channel
Your channel has grown so quickly! I remember when I found your Instagram I was hoping you would eventually create a channel. Thanks for sharing your collection ❤️
Watching older videos and enjoying them. Just had a question and I’m not sure if you’ve answered...but do you have your original copies that you first read in your collection still?
I cant believe that you have all these rare books! I just found your channel a few days ago and love it! I am a huge harry potter fan and wish I could have this much stuff. How did you get all of this?
That must have been so wild to get one of the first proof copies and read it before anyone else. I wonder if they had any idea when they read it how big it would be.
Ey Peter Potter, just curious on how and where do you get your books? Also, could you teach us how to take care of books? I’m a newbie book lover and quite clueless on how to take care of them. Thank you so much!
I've got a 1997 I think it's a first edition but 3rd printing as the first number is 3 through to 10, it's an unread hardback...I've got a few more, 8 in total, I'll have a look and let you know, kind regards from Scotland Uk
When I worked as an editor, we used X's and Lorem Ipsum as placeholders. Either the information was not available or they didn't want the information to leak. I never worked in an English-speaking country but I guess it is the same...
I totally forgot about the translation of HP1 to bable. Luckily I think I found a copy since I need it now O_o I just collect copies of HP1 in as many different languages as I can since that's the sense I wanted to give to my collection and I think two of my favourite ones are the one in classic Greek, since it reminds me of when I studied Latin and Greek back in the High School, and the one in Japanese illustrated by an artist that I can't remember right now, since it reminds me of a Japanese friend that had to go to work overseas. Anyway, I must say that I'm quite happy every single time I see you talking about your books. You show a kind of love for them that it's quite hard to find here in Spain. I must say I find a lot of your videos quite inspiring. As I said in a comment before, if you need something from Spain that I can help you with (trying to get a first edition of Emece, an audiobook or anything you might need in your collection) just tell me. I'll be more than happy to help you with it. P.S. Do you know about wand collecting? I'm trying to finish my collection with three ones that I couldn't find years ago and I'm driving totally crazy. I thought you might help me with it.
Hace nada en uno de tus vídeos dijiste que coleccionabas el primer libro en varios idiomas y pensé que tenía que preguntarte si conocías este canal, pero ya veo que sí :P
Lo sigo desde hace tiempo, sí, aunque comentar he comentado únicamente dos veces (esta es la segunda xD). Pero vamos, que envidia sana la colección que tiene ^^
Thank you so much for the comments! I am glad to hear you are collecting! If you can find Asturian, it is ultra rare! :D What wands are you looking for?
I'm trying to get Narcissa's, Cho's and Greyback's in Ollivander's edition. Those are the only three ones I need to close that part of my collection right now. I found a guy here in Spain that was selling Narcissa's but he suddenly disappeared and we couldn't even close the deal xD
I do not own any signed editions and I personally will never even attempt to purchase one unless you ( Peter, Potter collector) checked it off. Lol I do not trust my own judgement on that. I'm blind without my glasses and even then, I'm skeptical. P.s my phone wants you to be Pete the Cat. 😂that auto correct. My son likes those books.
The Potter Collector If ever you get time, can you send me a link of a true signed edition? I have seen some on eBay but I'm very skeptical. EBay is known for forging. Even pros can get scammed. Thank you for being awesome!
Another great video! Do you also collect the fake sequels as well? I think there were some Chinese knock offs that were printed... (not the fan fic stuff)
I just ordered the 15th anniversary paperback box set. I haven't received it yet. I saw some complaints about the pages being out of order. Has anyone had this problem or was your's fine. I guess when I get it in , I will check each page.
That's hard... but I can tell you my favorite for both is Chamber of Secrets. :D Let me try movies: Chamber Hallows 1 Stone Hallows 2 Azkaban Phoenix Goblet Prince
hope you are still monitoring comments on old videos! I started reading my wife's HP books to my kids, which she says she's read. In goblet of fire, 2nd print edition I believe (begins with 20 rather than 10), there is a section of the book which is missing. Page 50 jumps to page 83, page 83 then progresses normally for 30 pages before jumping back to page 83 to continue the rest of the book. I saw a listing on ebay for a book that repeats chapter 25 / 26 consecutively over and over. the asking price of $9,999 tells me i should look into my copy further. :-) Would you know anyone I could talk to for more info or have you ever seen anything like this before in Harry Potter books?
Great video!! I have to say, I noticed on this video...you look like a mix between Keith and Zack from the Try Guys. That's definitely a compliment, don't worry.

I don't know about anyone else but I'd just sit in that room in a spinning chair slowly, spinning for hours looking at this amazing collection.
Spin away! :)
@@ThePotterCollector dreams really do come true :) lol
The Potter Collector I I It u I I I I iv i
Ikr i cant stop looking at that amazing collection. Id love to spend a day in there looking at all of his books
Can you do a video based on who you are, what you do when you’re not organizing your collection or at Hogwarts?
That is on my list. :D
The Potter Collector 😍☑💯%👍💚
@@louisengland9631 how do you know muggle
@@louisengland9631 Why are you here then? Gotta love the people who show up on videos just to make fun of the people who like them. 😒
I read Peter sings so hoping for a singing video. 😁😁
This was fascinating. Is it because of the content...or the delivery? It’s so fun to see someone talk about something they are passionate about. Especially when I share that interest.
I know I spit out a lot of info at you guys! My guess is the Rare video will need to be two parts. There are a lot I would consider rare.

I actually really love the visual simplicity of the proof copies - I would definitely snap up a series with that Penguin-style colour blocking!

Finally,finally I met a person that handling the books correctly! ♥
Going back and catching up on all your videos. Love them all.
Sending greetings and positive vibes from South Africa! 🇿🇦
Hello from the US!
I keep going back to this video... One of my favorites!
It's one of my favorites as well!
This collection is such a gem.

I really hope you do start collecting. :D And yes, the history behind all of these is what I love most.
I could stay in that room for days and would never get bored.
The books are so beautiful!
Your collection is very impressive and must be worth a fortune 🔮 good for you my friend and thanks for the wisdom in collecting
How arw you so lucky to get this stuff? You're the calmest harry potter youtuber by the way!
Such interesting facts! I didn’t know of the initial place holder in the uncorrected. Also about the handling of books without gloves. So much goes into the publishing process.
Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book of the series. I’m jealous that you have that dust jacket!
Yes, it's dangerous. You may also think you have a grip on the book and then it could slide out of your hands with gloves on.
I dig up some research and the Filipino edition is one of the rarest translations of all time. Sorcerer's Stone is the only book translated. According to a Reddit user, only 3000 were printed and short number of copies, like the one you have, were existed today with the highest price.

Thank you. You taught me some things about the books that I didn’t know.
This is so awesome. I’m in awe by your collection.
The uncorrected proof copy are the coolest books you own! 🙌🏻😍 You have such an amazing collection. 💛
I agree! :D They're way cool! And thank you!
Yay! Just found you a few days ago and such a fan already. Your passion for HP is unmatched! Would love to see more videos in-depth on cover art across translations
I have some videos that show the cover art on each translation, but not in-depth. I agree, that would be a good series! :D
The Potter Collector the message we all get from reading all 7 books is a universal story, and you have it in all translations...It’s like a full circle. Congrats on what you’ve collected! I’m sure a lot has gone on behind the scenes. I think you’ll meet Rowling some day...
Have you ever had your full collection appraised?
What a beautiful collection! Can’t wait for the next video!!

Thanks man!
That must have been so wild to get one of the first proof copies and read it before anyone else. I wonder if they had any idea when they read it how big it would be.
I don't think anyone truly knew just how big... but YES, what an experience to know you read Harry Potter before it was even published. :D
Nearly on 200k congrats!!
You deserve more subscribers
You deserve a metal for your kind comment!
Thank you! Love this series ✨
Thanks for this video and these are some of my favorite videos. Best wishes Alex
So glad you enjoy them, Alex!
Love your videos, can't wait for the next one 😁
Ey Peter Potter, just curious on how and where do you get your books? Also, could you teach us how to take care of books? I’m a newbie book lover and quite clueless on how to take care of them. Thank you so much!
Yes definitely need to do a video like this!
The Potter Collector I’m excited 😱

Have you done a video on how you came into possession of your books. This is a great story. I'm very uninterested
Hey, nice collection, sure it takes so much work, hi from Uruguay
Hi! Do you have a video going over British first print books for order of the phoenix?
Awesome! 👍
Another great video! Do you also collect the fake sequels as well? I think there were some Chinese knock offs that were printed... (not the fan fic stuff)
Not necessarily knock offs, but I do have illegal translations or illegal copies (mostly Chinese).
Secret Ceres also has a page that is covered with all sorts of exes I think it is not to tell you certain information
mr.potter collector plz upload very oon i can't wait for ur vids thy are awesome
Yassss I love ur channel!! ❤️❤️❤️
You should do a series on how you find out about/track down these kinds of books. Although, you probably don't want to give away your sources xD
Love your videos!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love your videos
Incredible!!
goals 😍
Make it happen! :)
Im new to your channel, I subscribed 😁 your content is amazing
Welcome to the Potter Collector community!
The Potter Collector thank you 😊😄
I just ordered the 15th anniversary paperback box set. I haven't received it yet. I saw some complaints about the pages being out of order. Has anyone had this problem or was your's fine. I guess when I get it in , I will check each page.
can you do a ranking of the harry potter books and movies?
That's hard... but I can tell you my favorite for both is Chamber of Secrets. :D Let me try movies:
Chamber
Hallows 1
Stone
Hallows 2
Azkaban
Phoenix
Goblet
Prince
i have the whole collection of the first printed copies because of my mom and dad who bought them before i was born!!
That's so cool
I'm sorry for my presumably inappropriate question, but... How much was your copy of the 1st printing of the Philosopher's Stone? 😶
Do you keep all of your ultra rare books in the glass case? What a fun way to display it!
Just the rare translations. The ultra rare books are under lock and key or stored in safety deposit boxes.
The Potter Collector smart 😁
hope you are still monitoring comments on old videos!

Would you know anyone I could talk to for more info or have you ever seen anything like this before in Harry Potter books?
I have a book with a wrong Magier on the backside
I love your videos!!!!
You should do more shopping videos or should start collecting the new LEGO sets
I am planning to do Hot Topic and Barnes and Noble in the future. :)
Please do a video with your Filipino edition HP books...Thanks!
Love the videos
hey, is that uncorrected proof philosophers stone worth more than the 1st printing philosphers stone with the one wand blaise blaise?
I still hope to one day hold an uncorrected proof in my hands! after they have been cleaned and dried completely of course
Perhaps you will hold one of mine some day. :)
