AbeBooks names JK Rowling Most Collectible Author
AbeBooks.com, a site for finding new and used books of all types, analyzed sales data from 2007 and created a list of the top collectible authors. JK Rowling took the top spot followed by Roderick Gordon, Brian Williams, and Stephen King:On-going demand for signed Harry Potter books means Rowling tops the index although few first editions of her debut book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, reach the market. An autographed Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows sold for $5,500 just after its release last July.
If you're in the market for a signed Potter novel, we recommend you check out our friends at JKR's Army. They'll tell you what to look out for when shopping for a genuine JK Rowling signature. Thanks to Ali for the tip!

What if you don't have any hp clothing to wear? How could you show your support than?
what eva you like its up to you just show ppl you love Harry Potter
yeah, Ill go around wearing my only hp shirt and singing happy bday. and the whole school will look at me weird but thats no weirder then coming up to people saying some large 3 digit number and saying its the number of days till the next movie, so...
Woot! That's exciting. I wish I had a signed book.
The only thing I have related to hp is my hp hat and hats aren't allowed in school and most like not allowed during exam days. Any ideas on how I can still wear my hp hat, but not get into trouble, because I don't want to make a mistake that will cause me my graduation.
actually we're have a dress code too. maybe you can attach the hat to your bag? it depends on the hat, I don't know. I need to find a loophole too
Thanks for all of your ideas, everyone, but I think I know what I am going to do or more like I know what I am going to wear on hp day. I have a necklice of a wizard and the necklice main piece broke in half, so all I have lefted is the head of a wizard. That day I could wear black and white, like I am going to a funeral and wear the wizard's head necklice in behalf of Dumbledore's death. How does that show for a good idea??? Does that show hp spirt???
