In 1914, Lyman Frank Baum founded Oz Film Manufacturing to adapt his books for the movies, starting with The Patchwork Girl of Oz, his seventh Oz book. The movie followed the plot, in which a patchwork doll helps a young boy free his grandfather from a magic spell.

Baum then adapted Wizard into His Majesty the Scarecrow of Oz (1914), but couldn’t find a distributor until 1915. By then, Oz Film had become Dramatic Films.

Dramatic Films folded without ever releasing its third film, The Magic Cloak of Oz (1914), based on Baum’s non-Oz fantasy, Queen Zixi of Ix, about a sorceress seeking a magic wishing cloak.

This compilation presented by Tripdiscs contains all three of Baum's 1914 Oz films.

Contained in: Standard DVD Case.
