Emerald City (The Land of Oz)
The Emerald City of Oz is the sixth book in L. Frank Baum's Oz series. Originally published on July 20, 1910, it is the story of Dorothy Gale and her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em coming to live in Oz permanently. While they are toured through the Quadling Country, the Nome King is assembling allies for an invasion of Oz. In The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900), the glorious city was described like this: "When Morning arrived, the travelers were filled with high spirits as they continued to follow the Yellow Brick Road. Soon they saw before them in the distance a beautiful bright green glow in the sky. "That must be the City of Emeralds!" said Dorothy to her companions. As they walked on, the green glow became brighter and brighter, and it seemed that at last they were nearing the end of their long journey." The artists of Anderson Design Group have hand-rendered this magical illustration in the style of vintage poster art of the 20th century. This design is available as a poster, framed print, metal sign, canvas, or as a set of notecards or postcards.
