A pair of ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz are going up for auction. The famous shoes have quite a story - they were stolen from a museum display in 2005 by a man who believed they contained real rubies. The FBI eventually recovered the slippers in 2018. The shoes are expected to fetch up to $3.5 million as part of a movie memorabilia auction that also includes the hat Margaret Hamilton wore as The Wicked Witch of the West. Source: CBS
