This incredible image comes from the cover of an authentic and rare 1923 edition of "The Cowardly Lion of Oz." The book is the 17th in the continued Oz series. A true piece of Wizard of Oz history!
Baum's 1900 children's novel, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," the Cowardly Lion makes his first appearance in the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He is the last of the companions Dorothy befriends on her way to the Emerald City where he ambushes her. When he tries to bite Toto, Dorothy slaps him. She calls the Lion a coward and the Lion admits that he is. The Cowardly Lion joins her so that he can ask The Wizard for courage, ashamed that he is not brave enough to be the King of the Beasts. In the well-known 1939 film version, the Cowardly Lion was a humanoid biped played by Bert Lahr, a popular vaudeville and Broadway star. In Gregory Maguire's 1995 revisionist novel, "Wicked," as well as the 2003 musical, the Cowardly Lion is a minor character.
