Margaret Pellegrini (1923–2013) was one of the performers who appeared in the Munchkinland sequences of “The Wizard of Oz,” one of the most enduring fantasy films in cinematic history. Pellegrini portrayed multiple background characters within Munchkinland and remained closely associated with the film throughout her life, frequently appearing at conventions, screenings, and collector events dedicated to classic Hollywood cinema. As surviving cast members from “The Wizard of Oz” became increasingly scarce, Pellegrini’s autograph and memorabilia grew highly sought after among collectors of film and entertainment history.
