We're definitely not in Kansas anymore. According to the AP, the famous frock that Judy Garland wore in "The Wizard of Oz" just sold for $480,000 at a recent auction.
The blue gingham dress yielded the highest price of any item during a two-day Hollywood memorabilia auction. There were other Hollywood props for sale, including Julie Andrews's "Sound of Music" dress, which fetched $38,400, and Marilyn Monroe's purple skirt from "River of No Return" was sold for $50,000.
Dorothy's other famous possession, The Ruby Slippers, went up for auction in 2011. "The Holy Grail of celebrity props" was sold for a dizzying $2 million.
