Title:
Cowardly Lion
Description:
Cowardly Lion (Item No. 51500/3): The third in the line of Wizard of Oz figures, this item recreates the character of the Cowardly Lion (Bert Lahr) from the film. The Cowardly Lion comes on a “fat” male Mego body. His outfit is comprised mostly of a bodysuit made mainly of orange fleece, but with brown “fur” covering the hands and pantleg-fronts, and a coarse, orange fur chest piece attached at the collar. An orange fleece tail with an orange fur tip is attached at the back. (This bodysuit is more impressionistic than accurate, but it does the job of conveying the notion of a lion’s costume.) A pair of brown rubber shoes, molded to resemble lion’s paws, complete the ensemble. His only accessory is his trademark “Courage” medal, which is an oversized, gold vac-metallized cross suspended from a red-white-and-blue ribbon.
