Judy Garland Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers Auction preview with Profiles in History's Joe Maddalena

[judytube]

This is outstanding to see (the video images are great, patina and all)..If they infact, did not sell, they quite simply should be donated to a museum. In my opinion there is no price on these slippers... I believe they belong to the world and the world should see them upclose when ever they get a chance.

Footnote: Garland's shoe size:5

they didn't sell. I'd imagine they will go up again at a later auction?

what did they sell for

[Pupepepets]

What size is this pair of ruby slippers?

[RubySlippersProject]

As someone deeply fascinated by these shoes, you couldn't ask for a more detailed video! Thank you!

[MoviePropCollector]

@RubySlippersProject Thank you very much for the kind words. I wanted to take as many close shots as possible, and Joe was kind enough to allow me to. The color varied depending on how the light hit them so I tried to have no additional light sources. Hope everyone enjoys :)

Is that an original C-3PO suit in the background they are selling?

[MoviePropCollector]

@MrHitchcockFan I believe it was created by Don Post Studios and is in the auction.

I hope they go to someone living in the United States. If they go overseas, we'll likely never see them again.

[MoviePropCollector]

@thewzrdofoz Well, If everyone donates money to me I will be sure to bid on them :)
