The Wizard of Oz (1950 film)

The Wizard of Oz is a 1950 half-hour television adaptation with puppets of L. Frank Baum's famous 1900 novel, directed by Burr Tillstrom, famous for creating the TV show Kukla, Fran and Ollie.

It was telecast live on May 22, 1950 by NBC.[1] A print of the show is preserved in 16 mm.[2] It should not, by any means, be confused with the 1939 full-length classic MGM film starring Judy Garland, which was first telecast by CBS in 1956 and is now one of the most famous motion pictures ever made.
