The Wizard of Oz features three of the top 100 movie lines of all time, according to Premiere Magazine. "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"

 

Included in the tin are two decks of cards each feature a different classic shot from the Wizard of Oz movie.

On one, Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion stand at the edge of the forest, catching their first breathless glimpse of the Emerald City.

On the other, Dorothy has just woken up in Kansas, surrounded by her family and friends, remembering the “most wonderful dream” (“and you were there…and you…”).

Both decks feature a yellow brick road background, “The Wizard of Oz” in red letters at the top, and an illustration of a rainbow behind the Emerald City at the bottom. Both decks fit neatly beside each other in the tin box.

 

The Metal Container / Tin Box itself is 3.5" x 5" and has a yellow brick background and green border. “The Wizard of Oz” appears in red letters in the upper left corner, and the Emerald City appears in the bottom right. A rainbow arcs across the middle. In the center, a round illustration features all of your favorite characters: the Wizard himself flying away in his balloon (“I don’t know how it works!”), the three members of the Lollipop Guild, the Wicked Witch of the West, Glinda the Witch of the North, and the Mayor of Munchkin city toward the edges, with our quintet of stars in the middle – Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Lion and Toto. In the background, Dorothy is featured with Toto. The yellow brick road leads off to the Emerald City in the distance. Surrounding this round inset is a green border that reads “We hear he is a whiz of a wiz if ever a Wiz there was. We’re off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz.”

 

This piece is perfect for every Oz collector, and makes a great gift.
