Description
Here is a copy of The Land of Oz with the hard-to-find Roycraft dust jacket. In about 1959, just eleven of the Oz books were issued in special dust jackets designed by designed by Roland Roycraft. These were only in production for a few years before being replaced by the “white cover” editions without dust jackets, which are much more common. The cloth cover is blank. Land of Oz was written by L. Frank Baum and published by Reilly & Lee. The jacket lists to Hidden Valley of Oz, as do all in this jacket series.
This copy in near very good condition–the book is clean and tight, no writing or tears, while the jacket has edge wear and small chips at spine ends, along with a long ~2″ tear on the rear panel. Not price clipped. Protected in archival plastic cover and attractive with a funky 1960s vibe. See my store for other Roycraft and Dick Martin jackets from this series, if any are still available.
