Sorry I skipped last week, my (university) graduation is coming up so things are a bit coocoo! Anyway, this week I’m showcasing one of Artbox’s many Costume cards; Hermione’s Pink Sweatshirt from Prisoner of Azkaban. (I will be featuring a few of these in the coming weeks) About: This card was made by Artbox who do trading cards for all different movies. They have normal card sets for each movie and then they have special cards which have pieces of props, costumes and some have autographs. This particular card features Hermione’s pink sweatshirt from Prisoner of Azkaban and it was limited to 450 cards.
Value: Since there are only 450 of this card, it is pretty rare and therefore expensive. It goes for a couple hundred dollars on eBay at the most, usually a little under $150.
Buy It: Sadly, you can only find it on eBay. There are a few on eBay with Buy it Now prices right now, here are the links: $55, $149.93, $116.43, $145.55 If you want to buy base sets, special cards from current films, or some odd past cards I recommend Rich’s Cards, that is where I buy all my Artbox cards. You can email and ask what special cards he has and he is very good about emailing and has reasonable prices for the cards.
Rating: 8.5/10 These pieces are really fun, but they can be a bit pricey for such a small piece of movie memorabilia.
The Times Online has a new interview with John Hurt where he talks abut filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!
The franchise It’s very strange really. I did the first one and thought that would be it. Nobody knew whether it was going to be successful. When I came back last December to do the last two, suddenly everybody’s grown up. Daniel’s 20. It’s very peculiar.
Potter fans
They’re crazy about Ollivander — they love him! I’m not sure they will when they see the next one when he’s being tortured. I’ve never been pestered for an autograph. I get asked — usually by parents because the children are a bit too shy to ask. But I’ve never been pestered; I have a very good class of fan.

In a new interview with MTV, Tom Felton discusses how they will be filming the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Epilogue.
“For nearly two months, we’ve all been doing prosthetic tests and all sorts of preparation for the epilogue,” Felton said. “I’ve been having some aging training. You’ve got to walk differently. There’s a slump in your walk.” Those tests must have been successful because a schedule to shoot the scene has already been set. “It’s going to be the last big thing that we do. It’s going to be on location,” he explained, going on to say that it should take three days of filming to complete.
Until then, he’s been busy practicing how to play a character on the verge of turning 40. So how exactly does one train to be old? “It’s bizarre,” Felton laughed. “We have a lovely guy who comes in. It was a little weird the first time — imagine you’ve got weights on your arms! There have been a number of times where I nearly laughed and I had to hold it in.”
Felton should finally wrap up his decade-long commitment to the franchise in June, about six months before the November release date of the first part of “Deathly Hallows.” And while a bit of sadness has crept into the proceedings at the thought of leaving the series behind, he’s eagerly anticipating the chance to film the epilogue at long last and thankful that he — and not an older actor — will be in front of the camera when it all goes down.
“We’re probably at the most exciting bit,” he said. “Certainly the part I’ve been most looking forward to. It’s going to be very exciting.”
