Description: Delve into the magical world of Oz with this vintage 1956 edition of "The Wizard of Oz" by L. Frank Baum, a treasured piece for any collector or fan of classic literature. Published by The Bobbs-Merrill Company and illustrated by Evelyn Copelman, this hardcover gem brings the enchanting story to life with vivid imagery and a dust jacket to preserve its charm. The dust jacket is a bit weathered, which only adds to the charm, alerting the recipient of this gift that it is special indeed. There are several areas of fraying (see photos) on the jacket, but the book itself is nearly pristine and gorgeously bound, so if you wanted to remove the jacket you’d have a lovely display piece, its only flaw a bit of a scuff on the bottom of the spine. With the new WICKED movie musical coming out, this is an excellent gift for the Broadway or Oz lover in your life! Tuck two tickets to the film (or a Broadway show) into the pages as a bookmark and you’ve got a beautiful gift! This Junior Library Edition is a testament to the timeless appeal of Baum's masterpiece, printed in English and boasting not only copious black and white sketches of the characters peppered within the story, but several full color pages as well as a full color lining of the front and back covers.
