First edition of the third Oz title. Binding 'A' with publisher's spine imprint in large and small capital letters. First state of text, with the "O" in "Ozma," line five of the Author's Note on p.11, present in perfect type (apparently it dropped out at some point of the first press run). Pp. 135-[136], [153]-154, and [221]-222 are all integral (there was apparently smudging or offset to the coloring of those pages which occurred during printing and stacking of the sheets, and the worst of them were excised and replaced after the books were assembled). Bienvenue & Schmidt, p. 29.
Condition
Light wear, two faint lines of type on rear cover; very good.
