These paper masks of Wizard of Oz characters were released as promotional items in 1939 by Loew's Incorporated. Loew's was the parent company of MGM, the studio that produced the original Oz movie. The masks pictured are the Scarecrow, Dorothy, a winged monkey, the Cowardly Lion, the Wizard of Oz, and the Tin Woodsman. Images of these and other vintage masks may be viewed at Brechtbug's Flickr page
