David,

I don't get the error you're describing. However, the text box
which is created is invisible, because your value for 'bottom of
bounds' (".3") is smaller than the one for 'top of bounds' ("10.25").

And since you need a text box on each page you must address the
pages separately. 'spread 1' is "A-Master A", 'page 1' is the
left-hand page, 'page 2' is the right-hand page:
---
tell application "QuarkXPress 4.11"
make document at beginning
tell master document 1
tell spread 1
tell page 1
make text box at beginning with properties {bounds:{"10.25", "0.5", "10.55", "1.125"}}
end tell
tell page 2
make text box at beginning with properties {bounds:{"10.25", "7.125", "10.55", "7.75"}}
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
---
Up to you to modify my values.
