Recommended Posts

Hollywood Treasures is a television show on the Reelz channel on wednesday nights. It is about the owner of an auction company that finds film and television memorabelia to auction. The last episode featured Margaret Hamilton's, the wicked witch of the west from the original Wizard of Oz, screen worn witches hat sell for over $200,000. It was estimated to sell for about $80,000 but a bidding war broke out. Brought a smile to my face, remembering that hat and loving the movie as a child.

I saw that episode a few years ago.  I remember the hat.  I wondered what happened to that show.

 

I also saw the one that had the magical bag that was used in the Mary Poppins movie.

 

Lots of interesting things on that show.

My favorite movie, my Grandma and I used to watch it together every year. :smile:  I want the ruby shoes though! 

 

 

Aloe, last week they had the ruby slippers. Their were four pairs made. Three were  used for the walking and dancing scenes. The fourth was the close up pair that Judy Garland clicked her heels and wished to go back to Kansas. The close up pair sold at auction for $2,000,000.
