Hogwarts, a history?

[Alan Witts]

Hi everyone,

I was looking around the internet, and searching information about "Hogwarts, a history".
And... tons of sources tell me there is a MOVIE prop of Hogwarts, a history..

and this is a photo of it:

Spoiler: photo *click*

But I can't believe something like that (I don't like the design, XD) is used in the Harry Potter films?
And I can not find the scene or shot where this book is displayed?

So.. I need your help guys! What do you guys think and; have you seen it in one of the movies?

Well, I think it is a fake, made by a fan girl/boy because you get linked to Deviant acc when you find it on Google. However Harry Potter wiki says: ''The book in the films'' with the same cover as the one you posted.
Harry Potter wiki also says this: ''Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (video game) (First appearance) ''.
So it's kinda left out if its fake or not, but the cover still looks like ****. :'-)

It was designed by The Printorium, that did a bunch of the design stuff for the films.
Apparently it was made for Death Hallows Part 1.

But- it isn't used in the film? Is it?

From Hermione Granger’s library, this was originally designed for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1. She kept this very special book in her magic bag for safe keeping.

Whether or not it made a final cut, got a close-shot, or anything at all, doesn't change what it was made for. Tonnes more goes in to making a film than we ever see.
