Terrific non-TV Toys: "Wizard of Oz" music box, 2009

Just how do you get home from the Land of Oz? By clicking together the heels of your ruby slippers, of course. And lest we ever forget that trick, this lovely music box by the San Francisco Music Box Co. is there to remind us. Released at the 70th anniversary of the famous flick, this beauty features sculpted images around the base and a couple shiny, glittery slippers atop. It's the star of the latest episode of Terrific non-TV Toys ...

  1. SUCH a pretty music box! The red glitter on the shoes is just beautiful. Not going to lie, for some reason hearing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" (a song that doesn't usually get to me) as that distinctive music box refrain made me choke up a little bit!

  2. Yes, always such a lovely song. I need to watch the movie again one of these days. :)
