Description
Here is a nice early copy of “Tik-tok of Oz”, 8th of the Oz books written by L. Frank Baum. Copyright 1914, this is a Reilly & Lee edition with 12 color plates with captions by John R. Neill. According to the Book Collector’s Guide to L Frank Baum, with no list of titles on back of ownership page, it was printed between about 1925 and 1934. Blank endpapers.
Book is in very good condition overall. The cover illustration is clean; the spine and rear cover are in nice shape with light wear. Inside, front hinge is intact and rear is lightly cracked, but holding well. Front endpaper have a brown stain at base as shown, diminishing and disappearing by page 20. All 12 color plates are attached and are in very good condition. Pages are generally clean, occasional finger soiling, no coloring or tears noted. A hard to find title with color plates!
