Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Thus. The 33rd book in the Oz series & the final one written by Ruth Plumly Thompson, who brilliantly carried on the tradition of the original 14 stories by L. Frank Baum, with the lovely illustrations of artist John R Neill throughout the book's 272 pages. Orig. published in 1939 (to coin…cide with the release of the movie that same year), this is a modern reprint (after the early 1970s per ISBN) by Books of Wonder, in softcover format, but retaining the original text & artwork. An Ex-Lib copy (with the usual stamps & markings), condition is nonetheless VG: pages white & unmarked, binding strong & straight, exterior colors bright. Spine call number removed, but bar code remains on rear, trapped under library clear plastic topcoat applied to book, which is split in places (looks fine, feels uneven in places). Our photos depict the Exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same Day Shipping on all orders received by 2 pm Weekdays (Pacific time); later orders, weekends & holidays ship very next business day. O'Neill, John R. (illustrator).
