I imagine the money the first owner received from the insurance company is long gone. Hopefully, the first owner has big pockets to buy them back from the insurance company.

Hi everyone, dropping in for a moment. I heard the good news!!! Now the insurance company owns them. The previous owner has first dibbs on buying them back. See you all soon...Rayna

Did you hear on the news yesterday that one of the 5 pairs of ruby slippers used in the film was stolen many years ago, but finally tracked down and recovered? Said to be worth three million dollars! Yikes!

Fun to read your comments - loved that movie! My grands are afraid to watch it?!

Thanks for letting us know. I just did the smallest one. Good memories!

Posted a puzzle showing the moment the other bad witch tries to take the ruby slippers..under RaynaGrace tonight.

The dead WWE (dead Wicked Witch of the East) is holding the door. The ruby slippers were worn both by the Wicked Witch of the East and Dorothy. Sequencing of events from the movie: The tornado drops Dorothy's and Toto's house on the Wicked Witch of the East thus killing her and freeing the Munchkins from her tyranny. Glinda the Good Witch of the North arrives via magic bubble and shows Dorothy the dead woman's two feet visibly sticking out from under the house wearing the ruby slippers. When the (WWW) Wicked Witch of the West comes to claim her dead sister's shoes, Glinda magically transfers them to Dorothy's feet.

Final side note: In the original Frank Baum book, the shoes were silver. MGM switched the color in the movie to ruby red so they could show off their Technicolor capabilities.

Yeah but the ruby shoes were Dorothy's. So, who is holding the door?

It wasn't Dorothy but the Wicked Witch of the North (?) that got body slammed by the house. Instant recognition for me! Clever!

Ah, Toto must be from Oklahoma.

Very, very good. Poor Dorothy. She was off the mark by just a wee bit.

These would be a big hit out here in the middle of America where all things Oz are prized. Thanks for the post.

Oh, that looked like feet sticking out from under the bed to me. Good place to hide the bodies, but they would need to do a better job.
