The Wizard of Oz is a 1925 American silent fantasy-adventure comedy film directed by Larry Semon, who also performs in the lead role as a Kansas farmhand and later in the story disguised as the Scarecrow. This production, which is the only completed 1920s adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, costars Dorothy Dwan as Dorothy, Oliver Hardy as the Tin Woodman in a portion of the film, and Spencer Bell briefly disguised as a less “cowardly” Lion than in the 1939 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer version of Baum’s work.

The 1925 film, now in the public domain, is no longer restricted by copyright and is therefore free for general use.
