Happy Birthday Ozma!

This video is to celebrate the birthday of her Royal Highness Princess Ozma, Queen and Rightful Ruler of Oz!

Now of course I don't know how old Ozma actually is. She first appeared in "Marvelous Land of Oz" in 1904, but her name became the title of a/her book "Ozma of Oz:" in 1907 and her birthday was recalled to be August 21st in "the Road to Oz", 2009. But we do know that, side from being just a bit older than Dorothy, she is over 100 years old . . . and still damn good looking for her age!

In this Celebrating Video, I have put David Shire's "Return to Oz Ragtime march" to several pictures I photocopied and the coloured in from "Road to" and "Magic of", both Oz books of which include ozma's Birthday.

I had meant to finish this the other night and upload it this morning, but I didn't start it early enough.

Still, better a bit late than never.

But I will say (happily) that this is my first video of adding MOTION to Still Images, so although still far from perfect it is a great job for a first time.

Happy Birthday Ozma!!

It always cheers my heart to find other people who know there is SO much more to Oz than a musical film made in 1939. Ozma's name used to be a household word; now people will ask you, "Who?" She is without a doubt my favorite Oz character.

So glad I could make you happy with this! I prefer Oz that's not MGM either.

Glad you all like it!

I just wish I had done the opening (half-minute plus) better, as I just changed it a little while ago to make myself really happy about it.

Nonetheless, it is Still Good!

Thank you

That was glorious!

I'm so glad to have seen that! Now my celebration of the Ruler's birthday is truly complete!
