1959 edition with the Roycraft dust jacket art and internal art by Dale Ulrey. The 12th book in the Oz series and the last Oz book written by L. Frank Baum to be published during his lifetime. And one of only two Baum Oz books ever illustrated by Dale Ulrey. The Tin Woodman and Scarecrow set out to discover whatever happened to the young munchkin maid who was once the love of the Tin Woodman Along the way, they run into such beloved Oz characters as Dorothy, Princess Ozma, and Polychrome - the Rainbow's daughter. The only Neill-illustrated Oz book ever re-illustrated by Ulrey and then reissued in a Roycraft dust jacket. Quite the oddity! Bienvenue p76.
Sinopsis
From the book:The Tin Woodman sat on his glittering tin throne in the handsome tin hall of his splendid tin castle in the Winkie Country of the Land of Oz. Beside him, in a chair of woven straw, sat his best friend, the Scarecrow of Oz. At times they spoke to one another of curious things they had seen and strange adventures they had known since first they two had met and become comrades. But at times they were silent, for these things had been talked over many times between them, and they found themselves contented in merely being together, speaking now and then a brief sentence to prove they were wide awake and attentive. But then, these two quaint persons never slept. Why should they sleep, when they never tired?
