THE PATCHWORK GIRL OF OZ

Chicago: The Reilly & Britton Co, 1913. First Printing. Hard Cover. Very Good binding. Contains all points from the Bibliographia Oziana (VII) of the first printing, secondary binding. Includes the five pages of publisher's advertisements in the rear, the announcement on page [343], and the corrected printing of "CHAP. THREE" on page 35. This secondary binding is less common version of the first printing, however it is also not one of the earliest copies, as can be seen with the placement of CHAP..." and the slightly different typeset for the publisher's name on the spine. Pictorial endpapers in color. No inserted color plates, as with any first printing, but rather numerous colored text illustrations. Decorated cloth stamped in green, red, and yellow. Some curling to the edges of the spine, with soiling to the front edge of the spine and small spots of soiling to the front and rear boards. Previous owner's name written on the namepage. Hinges have been repaired. (Hanff, 6). Very Good binding. (Inventory #: 282508)
