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.
- Also available directly from the publishers, Sunday Press Books.
The Scarecrow and the Tin-Man of Oz by W. W. Denslow. For the first time, all of W. W. 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.)
The Denslow Picture Book Treasury by W. W. Denslow. For the first time, all eighteen of W. W. Denslow's picture books, including Denslow's Scarecrow and Tin Man, are collected in one volume, with reproductions of all of the illustrations in color.
The Royal Book of Oz by Ruth Plumly Thompson (originally attributed to L. Frank Baum), illustrated by John R. Neill. The Scarecrow investigates his family tree — only to find that he's a king! Trouble is, he doesn't want the job. Can he overcome the plans of the evil princes and find his way back to Oz?
- A high-quality paperback edition, published by Dover Publications. (This edition attributes Baum as author on the cover.)
- Kindle editions
Also available through Project Gutenberg (click the download tab to find it)
Kabumpo in Oz by Ruth Plumly Thompson, illustrated by John R. Neill. In the Gillikin kingdom of Pumperdink, Prince Pompa is given the task of finding the Proper Princess so he can marry her.

So he sends out two visitors from America, circus clown Notta Bit More and orphan Bob Up, to go to the Emerald City to fetch him. Too bad if the Cowardly Lion doesn't want to be part of the collection!
Grampa in Oz by Ruth Plumly Thompson, illustrated by John R. Neill. The kingdom of Ragbad is in big trouble, because the king has lost his head! So Prince Tatters and the old soldier Grampa set out to find the king's head, a princess, and a fortune. But why is an evil magician trying to stop them?
The Lost King of Oz by Ruth Plumly Thompson, illustrated by John R. Neill. Mombi must find Pastoria, Ozma's long lost father, before he suffers an even worse fate than the enchantment she put on him many years ago.

The Hungry Tiger of Oz by Ruth Plumly Thompson, illustrated by John R. Neill. The Kingdom of Rash has a new executioner — the Hungry Tiger! But he doesn't want to eat anybody, especially his friend Betsy Bobbin. But when he is given the task of eating the young crown prince of Rash, he knows just what he must do — escape and help the prince regain his throne.
