Baum describes him as a small man and bald as an egg, very much the way Denslow drew him. Neill drew the Wizard as tall and with a fringe. I prefer, Neill's version, it just doesn't match the text. <BR/><BR/>Oh well.David Lee Ingersollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06960750033882386122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103455.post-1163186095673015582006-11-10T14:14:00.000-05:002006-11-10T14:14:00.000-05:00Thanks for the link!

It's nice to see other portraits of her that show her heritage from the Rainbow.J. L.
