Queer visitors.jpg

Queer Visitors from the Marvelous Land of Oz: The Complete Comic Strip Saga 1904-1905. For the first time since their original newspaper publications, all of L. Frank Baum's newspaper comic pages are collected in their original form, at full size, in color. This book also collects W. W. Denslow's competing comic, "Denslow's Scarecrow and the Tin-Man," plus other early Oz comics and works by "Queer Visitors" artist Walt MacDougall, Denslow, and even John R. Neill. This is an important, historic collection of early Oz and comic materials.

Scarecrow-and-tin-man.jpg

Denslow's stories about the Scarecrow and the Tin-Man are collected in one volume, with the original illustrations. Includes the "Denslow's Scarecrow and Tin-Man" comic page stories and the Denslow's Scarecrow and Tin-Man picture book. (No, this isn't really considered to be an "official" Oz book, but as illustrator of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Denslow is a major player in the history of the Oz books. And this collection does represent the earliest Oz stories not written by Baum.)
