First edition

New York: R.H. Russell, 1900. First edition of this early children's book by Baum, published only months after THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ and thus almost immediately forgotten, with supplied facsimile frontispiece. Good only. Item #15353 NEW WONDERLAND was delayed for publication after MOTHER GOOSE IN PROSE but largely composed before it. A marvelous fantasy, later drastically reworked and later published as THE SURPRISING
