First edition Harry Potter among TV and film props expected to fetch £11m at auction

A first edition hardback copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is expected to fetch up to £150,000 when it goes under the hammer at a memorabilia auction in November. The book will be sold alongside a wand used by star Daniel Radcliffe.

The "Hero Wand" was used by the boy wizard in the 2001 film and is expected to go for up to £30,000. The lots are part of a larger auction organised by film and TV memorabilia company Propstore.

More than 1,500 lots are expected to go under the hammer when the auction gets underway at Bafta 195 Picadilly, in central London, on November 3-6. The total estimated value is in excess of £11 million.
