Personalize Your Bank Checks with The Wizard of Oz
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.
Not only does The Wizard of Oz have an endearing plot, but the characters are also memorable. Even the villain, the Wicked Witch, is a classic icon, not to mention the cowardly lion and Toto. Audiences want to root for the main characters to outwit the witch and get what their hearts desire.
Even though the plot is a simple one, even adults are able to find it appealing. Children might love it for the bright colors, funny characters, and musical numbers, but adults can relate to Dorothy’s homesickness and the camaraderie developed by her entourage. There is also the theme of things not being as they appear, as witnessed by the appearance of the wizard himself.
Some think that the movie is the most watched film in American history. It has been on many “Best of” lists, including the American Film Institute’s list of all time greatest movies. As a matter of fact, “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, the movie’s theme song, has been ranked the number one greatest movie song of all time by the AFI.
It might be hard to pick just one favorite scene or character in the film, but some checks offer rotating images to help alleviate this. Rotating checks are checks that have more than one image in the box, usually around 5. These checks are great because every one is different than the last one and you don’t have to choose just one image when you are ordering.
You can also find duplicate Wizard of Oz checks. These are good because a carbon copy of each check is left in the checkbook. When it comes time to balance yor checkbook, these make great records.
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?”
Of course, if you really want to show off your love of the movie, you can find matching accessories such as checkbook covers and address labels. Checkbook covers have such images as the yellow brick road and Dorothy’s ruby red slippers. They are generally leather bound.
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.
