| Item Description :St Nicholas Magazine, 1905. FIRST EDITION. Original serialization from the early 20th century in th American children's magazine St.Nicholas from November 1904-October 1905. (Later published in book form.) Offered here are seven (7) continuous issues, April - October, each with serialization portion of L. Frank Baum's (author of The Wizard of Oz) "Queen Zixi of Ix" - Numerous color illustrations by Frederick Richardson. Overall good condition, some spine and cover wear consistent; couple very light stains on the border. Overall very good condition for very scarce original issue of early Baum work. Measures approx.7 1/2 x 9 3/4 inches. The events of the book alternate between Noland and Ix, two neighboring regions to the Land of Oz, and Baum himself commented this was the best book he had written. In a letter to his eldest son, Frank Joslyn Baum, he said it was "nearer to the 'old-fashioned' fairy tale than anything I have yet accomplished," and in many respects, it adheres more closely to the fairy tale structure than the Oz books. Although Oz remains by far the more popular, many readers have held that Queen Zixi of Ix is perhaps an even better fable than the legendary Wonderful Wizard of Oz!Images :
