To avoid trouble with Child-labor and Child-Abuse laws, the so-called Munchkins in the Wizard of Oz film were played-= to a man and lass, by adult midgets. short-statured actors such as Mickey Rooney ( not in Oz) and yes, Miss Garland ( lead character) often were employed in playing juvenile roles. the Munchkins were played by adult midgets. Trick Photography can ( from a distance, and different props) make people look smaller, also- reduction lenses being used.

One hundred twenty-four (124) midgets were in "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, the film offered many opportunities for acting by diminutive performers. The Singer Midgets therefore took most of the film's acting jobs. They were a troupe well-trained by its owner-operator Leopold von Singer (May 3, 1877 - March 5, 1951) in acrobatics, dance, singing and Wrestling.

There are enough Munchkins to populate an entire land, in the Blue Country of the East, in both the original book and the 1939 film version of The Wizard of Oz. In the book, five are highlighted. There are the three men who serve, along with the Wicked Witch of the West, as a welcoming committee to Dorothy Gale and her pet dog Toto. There is the very important and very rich Boq, who offers Dorothy and Toto the hospitality of a night's lodging and food. And there's the beautiful Munchkin girl with whom a young woodchopper fell in love, and because of whom was turned into the Tin Woodman. In the 1939 movie version, the Singer Agency provided a total to 124 of their Singer Midgets to serve as Munchkins during the filming.

Three in the book and eleven in the film are the number of children in "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, this figure does not include Dorothy in either the original 1900 book edition or the beloved 1939 movie version of "The Wizard of Oz." Neither does it include the "many" children that are mentioned but not counted in Chapter 11 on "The Wonderful Emerald City of Oz." In terms of the book, the reader meets Boq the rich Munchkin's child in Chapter 3 on "How Dorothy Saved the Scarecrow" and then the two childen of the man with the injured leg in Chapter 10 on "The Guardian of the Gates." In terms of the film, the viewer meets eleven children in opening Oz sequence in Munchkinland: five females in a nest, three females in the Lullaby League and three males in the Lollipop Guild.
