A super Wizard of Oz related highly collectable treasure. Reilly & Lee publisher.The color of the plates is just great and the story couldn't be any cuter, with characters such as Mrs. Yoop the Giantess, Tommy Quickstep, Captain Fyter, and of course the Man of Tin and more.Condition very good/good as shown. Very Unusual to find these books that haven't been abused or colored in. This one is very clean all the way around. Strong binding, bright color plates, no writing or coloring whatsoever, third page has two very old thin pieces tape to strengthen area that showed signs of separating from binding (see photo).
