这个签名是Combs先生1999年在JK罗琳旧金山Cover to Cover书店的签售会上获得的。Combs先生当时是书店的员工并亲手将此书交给罗琳签名，随后作为个人珍藏悉心保存。这是首版首印的哈利波特原版书，更加珍贵

以下是Combs先生的陈述：

In October 1999, I worked as a bookseller at Cover to Cover books in San Francisco, where we hosted J.K. Rowling for her only San Francisco signing appearance during her promotional tour for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. (See screenshots of the event coverage from Entertainment Weekly, and the local newspaper, the Noe Valley Voice.)

I was a managing staff member for the event, and handed her this book to sign personally. It has been in my possession, vacuum-sealed in a safe since the signing, only being opened to take the photos for this sale. It hasn’t been handled, read, or in direct sunlight ever. 

个人赏析

JK罗琳的签名可以说是目前世界上最受欢迎也是赝品最多的签名。我很荣幸从Combs先生获取了这份珍贵的签名图书。
