About This Item

The jacket is protected by a removable Brodart clear-plastic sleeve. The jacket is rubbed with small edge chips. NO fading. PHOTOS UPON REQUEST. Hinges are PERFECT. Small spots of glue residue from 4 small pieces of tape formerly connecting the jacket to the pastedown endpapers - which have done an excellent job of protecting the book's beautiful cover. Sharp corners. Small edge nick. Square and tight. Previous owner's name filled in the "This Book belongs to" space. Pages are otherwise clean and unmarked. NOT a library discard. Illustrated with numerous b/w drawings by John R. Neill. Bound in the original rust-color cloth, with full color John R. Neill illustration mounted on the front. The cover illustration matches the art on the dust jacket. PHOTOS UPON REQUEST. The list of OZ books on the jacket's inner flaps ends with SCALAWAGONS OF OZ [1941]. Founded on and continuing the Famous Oz Stories by L. Frank Baum, "Royal Historian of Oz." Copyright 1930. No year of publication is stated, but since this copy has no color plates inside, it is a later printing, 1941 or possibly a bit later. See BIBLIOGRAPHIA OZIANA, XXIV, pp. 96-97..

About About Books

About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
