A small matter for the observant

Your Hogwarts list requires a closer look.

An open Hogwarts letter and equipment list on a wooden desk, beside a wax-sealed envelope, ink and books.
An innocent-looking list. One rather curious addition. Select the artwork to look closer.

01 / The letter

Something has slipped onto the list.

Your letter has arrived. The books are accounted for. The trunk is nearly packed. But take another look at the equipment list…

One item has found its way onto this copy that a first-year student is not permitted to bring.

Read the equipment list
  1. A wand
  2. A cauldron - pewter, standard size 2
  3. A set of brass scales
  4. A telescope
  5. A set of glass or crystal phials
  6. A broomstick
  7. A set of parchment
  8. An inkpot
  9. A quill

This is the list pictured in the letter. Which item should be left behind?

Which item doesn’t belong?

No timer. No hurry. A closer look is usually rewarded.

Some things are only found by those who linger a little longer.
