“The Wizard of Oz” Collection
Dear Boys and Girls:
If you have ever wanted to own the magnificent rare editions of the book so L. Frank Baum's stories of Oz by Baum, Thompson and Neil, here is your chance!
L. Frank Baum was a master storyteller who captured the imaginations of children in the early 20th century through the 1940's and beyond. Our idea of the Wizard of Oz has surely been colored by the 1939 film version, but for those of you who cherish the strange, subversive and whimsical narratives of Baum's original stories, ad the ones inspired by his work, these books will bring a new dimension to the classic story of Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, and the incredible cast of characters that traverse the land of Oz.
Each book is bound in heavy cloth boards, ranging from 295-300 pages in length. Each book i published by the Reilly and Lee company, dates ranging from 1903-1942. many of the books are written by Ruth Thompson and Neil, but the great L. Frank Baum graces a few of these as well!
