Description
Here is an unusual Tin Woodman of Oz book by L. Frank Baum (copyright 1918). First published in 1940 by Reilly & Lee, this Popular Edition only lasted until 1955 when Reilly changed the format again. See Bibliographia Oziana (1988) Plate 49, page 74.
This is an oversized edition, 9 3/4″ by 7″ by 1 3/4″, with a very attractive, colorful cover. The book condition is good only condition with some flaws. Front and rear covers have some staining, spine is clean and straight, substantial edge wear to paper-covered boards. Inside, the hinges and binding but there is a large tear on front free endpaper. The Book Belongs To page is blank and the other pages are quite clean and nice.
