Production Notes:
The first animated version of The Wizard of Oz.
Includes a soundtrack, but no dialogue. Never released to theaters, but black and white copies eventually made it into the hands of collectors.
This cartoon was made in the full three-strip Technicolor process, which is very odd, since Walt Disney had exclusive rights to the process at the time. According to film historian Bill Everson, Disney signed an exclusive agreement with the Technicolor corporation shortly after the completion of this cartoon, thus holding up its release. Another source suggests that theatrical release was prevented by an unspecified legal problem with L. Frank Baum's estate.
The cartoon begins in black and white and turns into color as Dorothy falls out of the cyclone into Oz (this was six years before the live-action MGM version).
Unlike the MGM film, this cartoon does not have the Cowardly Lion as a cast member. Dorothy's dog is unnamed.
