The Wizard of Oz Personal Bank Checks
There aren’t many movies that are as beloved as The Wizard of Oz. In fact, even more than 70 years after its release to cinema, fans still collect memorabilia from the film. You can find everything from mugs to tote bags with images of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man. Today, you can also carry bank checks with images of scenes from the movie.
The Wizard of Oz not only has a charming storyline, but it has extremely likable characters that the audience roots for. After all, who doesn’t love the cowardly lion or the bumbling scarecrow? And what about the stoic Tin Man? Even the Wicked Witch is considered one of the best movie villains.
The plot is also entertaining enough for adults to like, but simple enough for children to understand. The bright colors and musical numbers are enough to hold children’s attentions, not to mention the fun costumes, but adults can relate to the character’s struggles. Almost everyone can relate to Dorothy wanting to go home and be with her family, as well as her original feelings of wanting to leave home.
The movie itself has been on several “Best Movies of All Time” lists. The theme song, “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, was even listed as the Greatest Movie Song of All Time by the American film institute. Some people believe that it is the most watched film in American cinematic history.
Since it might be difficult to choose just one scene and one character from the film to have on your personal checks, many companies offer rotating checks that have more than one image in the box. They can have as many as 8 different images, which takes the pressure off of choosing just one. Even better, each check you write will be different from the one before it. Dorothy one day, the Scarecrow the next.
The Wizard of Oz checks can also be found in duplicate form. The good thing about duplicate checks is that they leave copies of the checks that you write right in your checkbook. This is invaluable when it comes to your record keeping.
You can even find checks that have messages on them in the form of famous lines from the film. How fun would it be to hand someone a check that asks, “Are you a good witch or a bad witch?”
Matching address labels and coordinating checkbook covers can also be found with images from The Wizard of Oz. You can find images of Dorothy’s ruby red slippers on your address labels, or of the yellow brick road winding across your leather bound checkbook cover.
It has been expensive to order personal checks with unique images in the past. If you went to your local bank, it sometimes took them a long time to arrive and when they did you had to pay a lot of money. Now, thanks to the Internet, this is not the case. By ordering online, you can save as much as 50% on your checks. It also only takes about 5 days for them to arrive.
