Description
Here I’m offering a choice of one of 16 original color plates from the 1908 1st edition Dorothy and The Wizard in Oz! These are full color plates with captions used in the Reilly & Britton 1st and 2nd printings, according to the Book Collector’s Guide to L Frank Baum. The 5 plates shown include those opposite pages below and PLEASE read carefully–some are sold!
p 100 (small edge wear/tear),
p 138 (long tear, see pics),
SOLD p. 146 Gargoyles (SOLD),
SOLD p. 210 (corner chip, edge wear),
SOLD p. 244 (SOLD, margin stain). Here is the perfect chance to substantially increase the value of your 1st that is currently missing plates. Or, would be nice framed.
Also available as a choice are the plate “For One Danced Exactly Like The Other” from The Enchanted Island of Yew, and 3 color pages from The Patchwork Girl of Oz (together). I have a few color plates from The Tin Woodman of Oz also.
Plates are $10 each, or contact me if you want to purchase them all for a discounted price. Describe your choice by page number or description in the order notes.
