Denslow, he is only as tall as Dorothy who is a mere child said to be no older than twelve. Because he is wearing Munchkin clothing the original Scarecrow is actually quite short in height like the majority of the Munchkin race in Oz. Around his waist is an old leather belt and on his stuffed feet are old and scuffed farm-boots of navy blue. On his stuffed body, the Scarecrow wears worn-out and faded hand-me down Munchkin clothing of blue, with an old wrinkled and pointed hat that stands a foot above his head. He is described as having an overstuffed sack filled with straw for a head with a mouth, nose, ears and eyes painted on with blue paint, (one of his eyes is said to be larger than the other) and has two big blue buttons for pupils. Somewhere in the middle of the Munchkin Country of Oz, the Scarecrow was introduced as being placed high up on a wooden pole in the cornfields of the Munchkin farming community. A "Berryfied" version of him also appears in the Strawberry Shortcake episode Berry Brick Road, where the character shares his voice actor, Samantha Triba, with Ginger Snap.

Scarecrows don't talk.) It's pleasant down that way too. ( Dorothy: Who said that? Don't be silly, Toto. Combining its mythology, already so rich, with the modern fantasy genre poses a risk.Pardon me, that way's a very nice way.
