My copy of SS which I bought in January 1999 has "Mom"- it's printing
details are;
"First American Edition" I think 23rd printing (above "First Am..."
it says "Printed in the U.S.A. 23";
I bought all three of the otheres on the U.S release day and they all
have "Mum" whenever the word is uttered, whether by a Weasley or in
the narration.
