clothing of ChinaIn L. Frank Baum the original novel The Wonderful Sorcerer of Ounce, Dorothy carried slippers in money. The film creators changed them to the ruby to take advantage of the chromatic possibilities of the new process of film in technicolor.

The ruby slippers were conceived by Gilbert Adrian. It is speculated that at least seven pairs were done in the sizes of the Garland of Judy 5 and 6; four used pairs in the film today were represented, just like the one 'the pair of Arabic test' that was used in the tests of suit but done not see in the final picture. A pair is on the permanent exposition to the National Museum of American History to the Institution of Smithsonian to Washington, DC[1]. This pair does not equal (the just arch is higher more than more left; see the picture), supply the speculation that more of the slippers can exist. The others puts is possessed by the private collectors Philip Samuels and David Elkouby. A pair very of buckle orteil cared for, done not use in the film, is possessed by the actress and remember them preservationist Debbie Reynolds. An unused other, the pair of appeared bugle was during done that Richard Thorpe directed the film. The location of this pair is unknown.

The four pairs of shoes used in the film were pump silk at first of the white ones of the Business of Shoe of Inns in Los Angeles, and carry a crinkled gold or a stamp in money, or a label of embellished fabric, on the plant of leather of white childlike just shoe. To the time, a lot of studios of film used shoes of simple white silks because they were inexpensive and easily tinted. The it is probable that most of the shoes reaches by the female characters in The Sorcerer of Ounce were simple Inns shoes with the heights of variable heel, tinted to equal every suit. The used shoes for the slippers of Dorothy were tinted red; the superimposed drawings of organza of sequined then bordeaux were attached the heel of superior every shoe and. The film beginning of the year 3-the band process in technicolor demanded spangle them to be darker than most of the spangle red found today; spangle them brilliant red would have appeared the orange one on the screen. The arches Art dedco-inspireds understood three big jewels of rectangular red glasses with appear them dark red bugle, sketched in the diamonds fantasies of orange red glass in the frameworks in money. The rocks and appear them were sewn to a piece of red one girths leather, then to the organza-couvert shoe. Three pairs of the slippers surviving have the orange stuck felt to their soles to absorb noise. To remain it, unmuffled the pair, the smallest one, was used on the feet of the dead Mean Witch of the East and probably for the close-ups of Dorothy (for example in Munchkinland and to the portals of City of Emeraude). The garland carried a primary pair during the shooting. This pair can be seen when the Witch tries to seize itself of them, while held Dorothy and his captive one of friends to his castle; and to the peak point of the film, when Dorothy types its heels to return to Kansas. The "the series of sister" to this pair is possessed by Michael Shaw, that obtained them from Kent Warner in 1970. This pair clearly can be seen in the final film when Dorothy shows the ruby slippers to the porter of City of Emeraude. This pair lacked since it was flown of an exposition to the Museum of Garland of Judy in the Grandiose Quick one, MN. [2] The last pair known was done for Bobbie Koshay, the double of turn of force of Judy. This the most probably is cuts it 6B puts (possessed by Roberta Bauman, Anthony Landini, and the owner David Elkouby current) of which the surface says "Doubles" instead of "the Garland of Judy". Judy could have carried this pair for the appearances of photos and advertising after the shooting of the primary film was finished in 1939.

Two weeks after Landini bought his pair, nevertheless another authentic pair appeared, beforehand possessed by Kent Warner, that found most of the pairs survivors of slippers while to work in the industry of suit of Hollywood. This pair was offered deprived some by Christie to while under offering it shoes of Bauman. Philip Samuels of St. Louis, Missouri bought them for the same price that Anthony paid, $165,000.

The Slippers of Ruby play nevertheless another complete role in the 1985 films of Disney "the Return to Ounce", for which Disney must obtains from the rights of MGM to use reproductions in the film. [3] In contrast to the used slippers in the 1939 films, the shoes of spool heeled British hands do for Return to Ounce was covered in the hundreds of red crystals. [3] The rocks were soaked in the sulphuric acid to remove the support in money, [3] The glue was used to affix them to the shoes (a glue of pulverization and a glue view). Regardless of was done, the rocks would not remain at his place, and fall kept of during to film. [3] Effects were added later the production of post to give their magic glimmer to the slippers. The ribbon of big simple and red grain with the additional rocks was used for the arches. Four pairs were done to film it: a pair, the one calibre, for Ozma (Emma Ridley), two pairs, the size 2, for Dorothy (Fairuza Backs up), and a pair, a size of the men 10, for The King of Gnome (Nicol Williamson). The stagehands were engaged in particular to sweep on the "ruby" detached that would fall of the slippers after a scene were pulled. Fairuza and Emma, be the granddaughters that they were, could not be careful not to play, to jump and to type their heels, therefore finally they were demanded to leave the slippers between takes.

They were won by a British family, that sold them to Ounce collector Willard Carroll eminent in a 2001 bids of eBay.

The business of the west of Suit in the complaints of Hollywood to have done the slippers of original Garland. While the it is probable that of the west would have been contracted to do certain Of The Sorcerer of Ounce a lot of suits, no files of that the original slippers exist to validate their complaint. In 1989, commemorate the birthday 50 of the film, west produced the only reproductions of Slipper of authorized Rubies. Lasted hand on Garland of Judy grinds it original foot and completely sequined and decorated of precious rocks, the reproduction slippers were almost the same as the original ones.

To the time that the shoes appeared of money. After having is delighted by Glinda (the Good Witch of the North) they become items of strength that allows Nessarose to walk without the assitance of a wheelchair. The energy of charm of Glinda gave their ruby glimmer celebrates to the shoes. The invention of Maguire spans thus the shoes of Baum in money and the slippers of ruby of the film. In the musical adaptation of Mean one, as the novel, the slippers are given to Nessarose by his father. In contrast to the book nevertheless Elphaba, the Mean Witch of the West, is the one that delights the shoes, giving Nessarose that the capacity to walk.
