Description
Here is a vintage first edition of Kabumpo in Oz, 16th of the series of Oz books originally written by L. Frank Baum and continued by Ruth Plumly Thompson. Twelve gorgeous color plates by John R. Neill. A first edition, first printing, as described in Bibliographia Oziana: half-title with Kabumpo following the ownership leaf, and a portrait of Dorothy on page 299.
Condition of this book overall is good plus. The exterior pastedown has light wear, and the spine has some fraying at the ends. Inside, the front hinge is lightly cracked, the rear is intact, and the endpapers have light age toning and a little foxing. The Book Belongs to page has a pencil inscription. All 12 plates are present and in very good shape, though there is some toning and foxing on pages opposite, and age toning throughout.
