47pp. Slim quarto. Rust-colored thin card wraps with an illustration of the Tin Woodman of Oz on the front wrap. Publication Number 228. "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum and illustrated by W. W. Denslow, was first published by the George M. Hill Company of Chicago in 1900. It is probably the most beloved American children's fantasy because it seems to embody many of the hopes, dreams, and fears inherent in the American character. But in addition to the story's extraordinary status as an American myth, the first edition is itself of exceptional importance to the history of American children's books. Nothing like it had been seen before: its innovative design literally changed the look of books for children. And more than one hundred years after its publication, Wizard is still an influence on children's book design." - p. 9. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 66600
