Odd.  My book lists 2 different addresses in Barcelona, one for the 
publisher (Emece) and one for the printer.  It says nothing about 
Argentina.  How do you know the translator was from Spain?  In my 
edition it just has the translators name - Alicia Dellepiane.  It is 
hard to believe that an Argentinian publisher would use a Spanish (as 
in from Spain) translator, as Latin American and Spanish dialects are 
considerably different.  The translation I have is distinctly from-
Spain Spanish; it uses a lot of words I dont know as I learned 
Spanish in Latin America.  It could be that there are 2 different 
Castillian editions, one Spanish and one Argentinian, thus increased 
the number of translations of the HP books.
