Book Wholesalers, Inc., a book supplier to U.S. public libraries, has posted
a small report on their recently received shipment of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince including a tiny picture of the backside jacket.
If you're trying to stay spoiler-free, you might want to pass on this one although it's difficult to see any detail.
- Here it comes
- Boxes of books
- The lion's out of the bag
- SPOILER: Glimpse of entire jacket
- Ready to go!
UPDATE: Scholastic has officially released a much higher quality version of the art on the back side (without text). From their press release:

I guess it's more then we had before, but the glare makes it hard to see. It just really looks like the stand up promotional picture we already seen with Ron and Hermione on it.

I, for one cant tell what it says. But I do know what it is a picture of. Even so, I don't get how the moderators can consider that a spoiler. But I will hold my tongue for the sake of others who do consder it a spoiler.

I'm keeping away from this one folks, just wanted to say, if there'e anyone like me, just commenting, I would say, turn back and don't read anymore comments and don't look at the jacket, only a week left folks, let's not spoil it now.

I looked at the picture and it was super small. Not as great as I expected, which was good. It would have ruined things a little, even thought that is not the same copy I am getting (I'm Canadian).

I always looks at spoilers, I have no willpower! Doesn't matter if you look, though. You can't tell what anything is!

Um...I'm not seeing how the book jacket could spoil any part of the story. Besides the book comes out in a few more days anyways.

It didn't seem that much of a spoiler. It's not like we know what it means. We couldn't really see it that well. But It looked great though. I love the artwork on the U.S. schoolastic covers. Can't wait until next week, plus a day.

Hmmm not much of a spoiler but hey I will take what I can get right? It is very unreal to see the book packed like that. We have all waited for the HBP to come out and now finally the date is here and its unreal!

I wonder if the packing people feel a bit like Santa wrapping presents... all those happy "kids" waiting for the book, tapes, CDs, etc... And all those delivery people- will they get thank yous or packages being ripped right open in front of them? Hm I think I'll go reread the books, regain some enthusiasm and go to a Potter party, there's only one more left after this... bittersweet...

I'm not looking! I like surprises and I hate spoilers! I drive my family crazy b/c I don't jiggle present boxes or barrage them with questions...I just wait, excited but patient - and this book is one of the best surprises I've been looking forward to in a long time!
