Oz Film Manufacturing Company -- January 14, 2014

The Oz Film Manufacturing Company, located in Los Angeles, was formed in 1914 to produce movies based on stories by L Frank Baum, the creator of The Wizard of Oz.  The company made some movies, but was not a financial success. This logo is a detail from a double page ad in the 29-September-1914 edition of Moving Picture World.  The full ad is below.  It refers to their first two movies, The Patchwork Girl of Oz and The Magic Cloak of Oz.

I moved this series over from my other blog, The Pneumatic Rolling-Sphere Carrier Delusion.  Here are the entries from this series on that blog.
