Ruby slippers worn in 'The Wizard of Oz' are auctioned for a record $28 million

Sequin-covered ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in <em>The Wizard of Oz</em> appear at the offices of Profiles in History in Calabasas, Calif. on Nov. 9, 2001.

Including the Dallas-based auction house's fee, the unknown buyer will ultimately pay $32.5 million for the pair of iconic ruby slippers that were stolen from a museum nearly two decades ago.
