This is a copy of the first Russian edition which is titled [Garry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone] There is no 'H' in the Russian alphabet and the letter 'G' is sometimes substituted as was done with this title. The pages are very mildly toned and a neat previous owners name is present, light fade to top of boards.
