A pair of ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz has been found 13 years after being stolen.
According to US authorities they were taken from a Minnesota museum in 2005, when someone broke in through a window late at night.
Three others pairs of ruby slippers worn by Garland in the 1939 film are known to exist.
An anonymous donor once offered a $USD1 million reward for the stolen pair's whereabouts and the thief's name.
However, the reward expired on the tenth anniversary of the robbery.
It is unknown if the shoes' recovery is related to any tip‑offs.
In press conference earlier today, no specific details were given about where they were found or how.
The slippers are often said to be among the most valued props in movie history.
This pair was insured for $1 million but experts have said they could be worth two times more today.
