Description

This is the rare UK motion picture edition, timed with the MGM movie release in Great Britain: “The Wizard of Oz–The Original Story on Which the Film is Based”. Contains eight beautiful color stills and publicity photos from the movie, unlike the much more common American movie edition that contains the traditional Denslow plates. The plates in this book were made by colorizing the black & white photos, and are especially striking, particularly the frontispiece of Judy Garland.

This is the London Hutchinson & Co edition, shown as plate 18 in Bibliographia Oziana and Fig. 21 of the Book Collector’s Guide to L Frank Baum. Com. The book itself is undated, but according to the references is circa 1940. There are several full-page (and some smaller) black and white Denslow illustrations in addition to the 8 colored photos.
