Description
Here is a copy of The Shaggy Man of Oz written by one of the later Oz book authors, Jack Snow. Copyright 1949, first edition, first printing with illustrated endpapers (see Bibliographia Oziana). A beautiful book with the full-color paste down cover, and black and white illustrations by John R Neill. Also includes the first edition dust jacket, with Shaggy Man of Oz being the last title on the flap.
The book is very good condition–super clean front cover pastedown, with a little corner bumping. Inside, the binding is tight but there is a bookplate and former owner’s name on the endpapers, with a Christmas 1949 date. The front illustration was some light creasing, and there is a light stain on frontispiece. Pages are otherwise clean. The dust jacket is fair, price-clipped and with some tape on the outside along the front of the spine and on two tears along the top. Still presents well overall.
