Wonderful ‘Wizard’ collection

K.C. woman devotes room to Oz

? There is no place like Jane Albright’s home to find as much memorabilia on “The Wizard of Oz.”

The 45-year-old Kansas City, Mo., woman has a 12-by-15-foot room devoted to Oz. Her collection includes dolls, toys, games, housewares, vintage clothing, figurines, record albums, pop-up books and multiple editions of L. Frank Baum’s books.

Albright’s collection will be featured on “Home and Away” this week.

Albright became interested in “The Wizard of Oz” as a child, when her mother read Oz books to her. She joined the International Wizard of Oz Club and attends Oz conventions.

Cathy Hamilton is host of “Home and Away.”

A new show airs at 6:30 p.m. each Monday on Sunflower Broadband Channel 6 and repeats at 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. The show is also broadcast at 9 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and 9 a.m. Sunday.
