DLE Wonderful World of OZ

Is this new? They have it in stock with real photos.

Apparently it's a re-release. I don't think it's considered a DLE because it was never limited per se

It's limited to 1900 sets because it's a reproduction of the 1900 edition.

Ahh, I stand corrected. They may have found some ones like they apparently have with the Poe DLE. I may pick one up knowing it is DLE. Thanks for the pic.

Thanks. Is the Oz DLE up to the standards of the better DLEs?

It seems to have most of the features of other DLEs like the slipcase, marbled endpapers, hand-numbered page before the title page (on which Dorothy looks like she's about to perform in a minstrel show), and numerous color illustrations. I'm new to this so I'm no expert. Here are more photos:

Looks like a lovely volume but I'm not much of a Wizard of Oz fan.
Here's a video of the original First Edition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4FLRKsqY3I

Hand marbled or printed endpapers? The cover boards look thicker than usual.

>9 cu29640: I'm guessing printed since they're using "genuine leather" instead of the more usual "cowhide leather" for DLEs and the book is bound by Bind Tech and not Kingsport. The boards look like normal thickness to me.

As per Easton Press, the next batch of item 1985, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz DLE, is due out on November 12th, 2020.
