e are pleased to announce an exciting upcoming series based on the characters from the classic MGM motion picture The Wizard of Oz!™

"Dorothy Gale" will be faithfully based on the the character unforgetably played by Judy Garland in the 1939 film. The Kansas farmgirl who is swept away into the Wonderful Land of Oz, will be vividly brought to life by R. JOHN WRIGHT DOLLS. Standing approximately 16" tall, Dorothy will be fully jointed and made entirely of the finest all-wool felt incorporating a realistic sculptural body and limbs and a compelling portrait face with delicate hand painted features. Her lovely hands will have individual fingers and she will have a meticulously hand-knotted wig made of the finest mohair.

Oz's beloved heroine will be dressed in the trademark costume consisting of a white cotton blouse with rickrack trim, period undergarments, and a pinafore dress tailored of custom-made blue checkered fabric. On her feet, she will wear custom-made anklets and hand cobbled Ruby slippers - covered in tiny sequins, rhinestones, and faceted crystals. On one arm, Dorothy will carry a custom made replica of the actual basket in the film. No effort will be spared to make this the most authentic version of this beloved character ever produced.

Dorothy Gale will come enclosed in a deluxe presentation box. Included will be the accompanying signed and numbered certificate of authenticity and the forms for owner registration. Matching numbers will be provided to other characters in the series.

The R. John Wright Wizard of Oz™ series will be launched at the 2nd annual R. John Wright Convention held in Albany, New York in June. At an exclusive Wizard of Oz dinner event, each attendee will receive a R. John Wright Munchkin  - the very first piece in the exciting Wizard of Oz Collection!
