About this Item

(1904). Very Good in the publisher's pea-green cloth. Both the spine and the front board are stamped in green. Decorative gray, black, and orange endpapers. 239pps., with numerous gray, black, and orange illustrations, plus 16 full-page, full-color plates. Modest rubbing wear to the board-edges and light soiling and rubbing to the paste-label, which is in very nice condition. A good deal of the lettering has been rubbed from the spine, though it is barely affected on the front board. A small store-label is affixed to the upper corner of the front pastdown. The binding is shaken, though sound, with all pages and plates intact. Also, there is a small tear (1/2") in the endpaper near the top of the rear hinge; this is not a structural problem, but a slight cosmetic one and all the material is yet present. Overall light reading wear with the sporadic soil-mark or crimped page-end. The plates are all in fine, clean condition. A charming children's book with all illustrations by the celebrated W. W. Denslow, who'd done the original The Wonderful Wizard of Oz four years earlier. Purchase with confidence: all books, gradings, and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.
