Has the Wizard of Oz been color enhanced?

Answer 1

It would not be necessary. the reality or normal-earth sequences of the film, which began on the farm or ranch- were in Black and White. When the character Dorothy is taken up by the Cyclone into Oz, the picture transitions into full technicolor and wild effects with strobe lights- horses changing color etc. I only saw the thing in Black and white. there is nothing in the dialogue to suggest a shift from B&W to color which occurs after the cyclone business. Maybe they knew TV was coming and the majority of TV sets for many decades were- including ours, Black and White at the time.
