	2.	Baum, L Frank. Illustrated By John R. Neill  The Emerald City of Oz Chicago The Reilly & Lee Co. 1939 Hard Cover Good Fair 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Undated, copyright 1910, final title on dustjacket list is Ozoplaning with the Wizard of Oz, which was published in 1939. Red cloth with full color illustration mounted on the front cover, Dorothy and Ozma endpapers, 296 pages, illustrated dustjacket. The book would be very good but for the badly stained rear cover and mottled spine - the front cover illustration is near perfect. The stains are most likely from moisture exposure, but there are no other signs of moisture to the inside of the book (other than a bit of foxing to the final three leaves) or to the outside of the dustjacket (the inside has been stained red from the cloth, and there are a few traces of blue color to the outside), and no musty odor. Little wear, good hinges, sound text block, very clean pages free from names or other markings, no chips or tears, some foxing to the endpapers - internally near fine. The mylar protected dustjacket is not priceclipped and is bright, but has some significant chips and tears, mainly to the spine area, with the front and rear illustrations largely intact, less than ten percent paper loss overall. Price: 75.00 USD
