During the filming of 'The Wizard of Oz', Frank Morgan, the actor who played the Wizard, said he wanted a coat that looked both elegant and a bit shabby at the same time. The wardrobe department purchased an entire rack of second-hand coats for Morgan to choose from.
During a rehearsal, Morgan turned out one of the coat's pockets and found a label saying that the garment had been made for L. Frank Baum, author of the 'Oz' books. MGM contacted Baum's widow, who confirmed that the coat was her husband's. After filming the garment was returned to her.
