Judy Garland's iconic ruby slippers from The Wizard of Oz to go on display in London before auction

The ruby red slippers are set to find a new home - (PA)

An original pair of ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in the classic 1939 film The Wizard of Oz will go on display in London ahead of being auctioned.

The slippers, inscribed with Garland’s name on the inside, were designed by MGM's chief costume designer, Gilbert Adrian. They are one of only four surviving pairs made for the film and were worn in several key scenes, including the iconic ending where Dorothy clicks her heels together, declaring: “There’s no place like home.”
