Description
Here is a nice copy of Magical Mimics in Oz by Jack Snow, copyright 1946, published by Reilly & Lee and illustrated by Frank Kramer. This is a first edition (1st printing), 1 1/8″ thick with 16 page gatherings and green illustrated endpapers, in the primary A (grey) binding (reference the Book Collector’s Guide to L Frank Baum). 242 pages.
Book is in near very good condition. Front cover pastedown is clean, but the corners are bumped and the spine has light fraying starting at ends, rear cover has a little soiling. Inside the binding and endpapers are tight; endpapers clean except for “first edition” written in pencil. The ownership page is blank and the pages are clean but have light age toning due to the post-war paper used. Also, the edges of the text block are a little dirty and stained.
