Description
Interesting book by Wizard of Oz author L. Frank Baum about John Dough, a very unusual gingerbread man. This is copyright 1906, but a circa 1920 early Reilly & Lee edition with 12 color plates and Oz titles in front listing to Glinda of Oz. Illustrated endpapers. Besides the plates, the book has many weird and wonderful drawings by John R. Neill. I’ve actually read this book and it’s pretty entertaining!
This book is in near very good condition overall. Cover color pastedown has some slight discoloration as shown. Spine has light wear at ends and is slightly cocked. Inside, there is an owner’s name in pen and pencil notations in pencil by a bookseller, with slight paper loss at base of endpaper. The text and plates are generally in very good condition. A nice early copy.
