Description

Original Winkie Guard spear including metal spearhead and original wooden staff Original Winkie Guard spear including metal spearhead and original wooden staff. (MGM, 1939) Cast metal spearhead which was wielded by the Winkies, the Wicked Witch's ominous guards. Reminiscent of Adrian's costume designs for the production, it is quite likely that the prop department created the spearhead based on Adrian's design. Spearhead measures 30 in. long and includes the original staff measuring 97 ½ in. long. Staff exhibits paint scuffs; otherwise, very good condition. An incredible artifact from the film.
