Chicago: The Reilly & Britton Co, 1904. Hard Cover. Very Good binding. Large 8vo.; in the publisher's red cloth, binding D, with the title shortened on the upper board and the spine to "The Land of Oz" printed in deep navy blue with metallic-silver outlining and with the author's name moved to the lower right corner; the spine vignette has metallic silver embellishments added; and with the ambersand on the spine imprint changed to the "Fancy" style.~~On the copyright page the last typeset line reads "Published July, 1904"; the illustration facing page 23 is captioned "OLD MOMBI PUTS JACK IN THE STABLE"; with Jack Pumpkinhead embossed on the rear board.~~There are 16 full color plates. One plate, facing page 204, ["The Gump Soared Swiftly and Majestically Away"] is a very little bit rough long the leading edge; perhaps it was detached at some point and has been tipped back in [not by us]. The pictorial endpapers have photographs from life posed by comedians Montgomery and Stone. Some of the plates have some minor toning.~~There is a previous owner name stamped on the front endpaper, and in blue pencil "IInd". The binding is slightly cocked and has some trivial wear.~~Overall a nice copy of this Second Printing. (Bienvenue 23; Hanff 46-47). Very Good binding. (Inventory #: 297397)
