- Summary
- Color lithograph poster by Strobridge Lithographing Company advertises Fred R. Hamlin's musical extravaganza, The Wizard of Oz, under the direction of Julian Mitchell. The poster depicts an illustration of the Tin Woodman and Dorothy each holding an arm from the Scarecrow, who is standing in a shed-like structure in a wooded setting. No specific theatre is noted, as this was likely a poster that could be customized as the show toured.
