Tour of the Debbie Reynolds Collection including the Ruby Red Slippers from The Wizard Of Oz and the famous white Marilyn Monroe dress from The Seven Year Itch
What wonderful collection Debbie Reynolds has preserved. Todd Fisher it is great knowing your work carries forward your movie star Mom's brilliant business idea. Todd, you carry the touch well. Both your Mom, Debbie Reynolds, and your sister, Carrie Fisher must be very proud of you! Hooray for Todd Fisher, we applaud you.
Kathyuk28 todd kept the greatest in the collection..anyone who is married to a woman who walks around with s live chicken can't be that crazy!! its a chicken not a cuckoo!
I think last auction was in 2011--or was that the first one. no matter--she wanted to see an investment (while still here) on her returns after museums failed. who could blame her?
She did have to sell a LOT after husband after husband bled her dry. But YES, Todd Fisher is a very good man and the stability of the family. Debbie could always count on him, and he loved Carrie through the awful highs and lows of bi-polar disorder and her endless drug addiction. But she wasn't always kind to him.
We had no idea ms Reynolds had such vision. To have come so close to losing valuable history. And textiles are the most fragile and rare. Her son shows such respect. Glad we caught this.
After reading Todd’s book, I consider him a hero. He protected his mother and sister. Debbie’s collection couldn’t be in better hands. Todd is simply amazing and his wife, Catherine Hickland, is a jewel.
Gladly, not all was auctioned off, and there is a museum of Debbie Reynolds extensive collection. In fact, it is THE LARGEST private collection ever. And if it were not for Debbie's love and dedication for collecting these pieces, they would have been lost and intimately destroyed. Sorry to say that she has now passed away, and there will not be anyone else that will dedicate their life and love the way Debbie Reynolds did. Such a great loss of one of the greatest actresses of all time.
there is no museum. its closed and things auctioned off. all those h'wood moguls--none of them had Debbie's vision for preserving H'wood history. Things we treasure.
An Icon saving iconic things. I love that of all people it is Debbie that made this happen. And seems to have set it up to continue into the future. Brilliant.
In tears ~ what an extraordinary woman was Debbie Reynolds ~ brilliant performer but the ultimate survivor ~ never recognized for her brilliant wit, business acumen & giant heart ~ RIP Debbie & Carrie Bye Bye 2016
The rubby slippers are my all time favorite Hollywood peace of all time! They seriously made a huge impact in my life ever since i first saw the wizard of oz back in first grade in 1990! I've actually made a pair for my niece for her Halloween costume! She loves them so much N got so many compliments!
I can't believe the Hollywood elite couldn't get together and build a museum for her collection. Lovingly collected, very sad it has been broken up. Debbie Reynolds was a class act one of a kind .
I want to thank everybody who had the foresight to hold onto these Treasures and Miss Reynolds is at the top of the list what a phenomenal Warehouse of movie memorabilia I love the one from Valentino
The many failures of Debbie's attempted Hollywood museums are so hard to fathom. This should have been gold from the start and just so much bad luck! Todd Fisher: World's greatest son.
Wow, we should all be as lucky as Debbie Reynold's to have a son like Todd. So nice to hear something good about a celebrity instead of media hyped drama thats used & manipulated to sell stories or get higher view counts. Not to mention, about the son of a celebrity carrying on her collection after her passing with as much care & consideration as she herself had when collecting it.💜 Can you imagine if Judy Garland knew about the money that could be made from all the stuff on the sets of Wizard of Oz she NEVER would have experienced the financial issues she did later on in her life. Then again, they probably weren't worth as much back then either.
The amount of history here is absolutely mindblowing. How can a price tag even be put on these beautiful pieces?? It would be a huge privilege to be able to see this in person.
Astounding commitment by Debbie. God I could roam this collection forever and never fail to be dazzled or inspired. Great work done here for future generations to learn from, bravo.
If you imagine, just for a moment, the talented, most often nameless hands who actually constructed and thus brought to life the vision of the designers, preserving the history these pieces represent is preserving their legacy. It goes without saying we all, if we love most all film (especially classic and silent film too), the stars who wore these things are important, but not the only aspect that deserves recognition. These articles of clothing are truly art. Thank you Debbie, and Todd and family! 🙂💕
This collection was phenomenal. I wish there was some way for the public to see all of these wonderful pieces. I’ve seen the ruby slippers at the Smithsonian a few times. I wish I could visit the new Academy Museum in Los Angeles. I can only imagine what will be on display when it opens.
There was a museum in Debbie's short lived LV Casino where a bit of it was displayed. Tod created a great show where a costume would appear on screen and then appear in a lighted rotating niche.
HI everybody, just an update on the above Ruby Slippers that some people think are real for some reason. They will be in Debbie's next auction in May 2014. And yes they will be listed as 'REPLICAS".
L.M. Welsh but Kent Warner's favorite pair, the "Witch's Shoes" were labeled "Judy Garland #7", but who knows, maybe the first pair were repurposed when they added the bows, and were the same pair but with bows added.
That was a bit of a shock. You'd think they'd know better. And I agree, it makes you wonder about their research skills! Hopefully their conservation skills are better.
Debbie, you are a gifted talent I have adored my entire life. And your work acquiring and preserving these pieces was fantastic. And now I have lost all respect for you now that you have decided to auction (sell) what you stated your whole life should be for the people. Your third auction was this year in 2014 since 2011. Now the most of these are in the possession of rich wealthy oil and business conglomerates in Saudi Arabia, China and Japan for bragging rights in their Tycoon homes, gone from the country in which they were crafted, filmed, and cherished. The money from just a few pieces could have got you the money for a museum or there are places here in this country now that have the experience and knowledge to preserve them as donations where they could be all in one spot for the public even after you more than made your investment back and then your benevolence and dedication to the past would have be cemented forever. Now this is what I and many others will remember you for. Hope the money was worth it as this ended up being your ultimate endeavor.
She had no choice .It broke her heart and sh e does not deserve your criticism.Not one of filmlands billionaires would support her dream of a Hollywood Museum.It was costing millions to preserve and safely store her treasures.Have some compassion for a lady who tried her best at huge personal and financial cost.RIP Debbie.
Todd fisher was very good to his mother and sister. He has superman strength. They lived long because of Todd. He should be admired as a good human being.
Marilyn's white dress was definitely not purchased off the rack! It was thoughtfully designed by William Travilla, who designed most of her fashions for her Fox pictures.
All gone! Debbie sold everything because she had financial hardships. Don't think people now days probably would even care about these precious costumes!😨
What an amazing collection! Some beautiful items. That second outfit they showed (something to do with lights... Can't remember the name or the film) was so beautifully crafted, it's such a shame you couldn't see that beautiful colour and workmanship in the black and white film. I'm glad someone is taking the time and money to preserve such precious items for future generations. Although tbf, it's not like they will all depreciate in how much it's worth is it lol.
Judy's slippers were all made from the Innes company in Los Angeles in 1938. The label on the one pair of Ruby Slippers in this collection, is from the Western Costume Company. This is a company that made replicas of the Ruby Slippers, that Judy wore in the movie. These were never worn by Judy or used at all in the film. The other pair, or Arabian test pair, as they are called. were worn by Judy only to see if they wanted to use them for production, but they decided not to use them in the movie. The Arabian pair is definitely the real thing, the others are just costume shoes.
i got one costume from her auction, really amazing but no one from my family realize that i have a treasure from hollywood history..mgm 1934 Frank Morgan.
It is a National Crime that Debbie's Collection wasn't bought by the Smithsonian or another Museum. Now these beautiful things are owned by only the very rich and most will never ever be seen again.
great collection BUT unfortunatley this is missleading - those pair shown here ARE NOT the orginal ruby slippers from 1939 - the ones debbie has were produced in early 2000s by the western costume company as a promotion - the orginal pairs were created by the innes shoe co in 1939 :)
The regular slippers in this were NOT used in the wizard of oz because the originals were made by the ines shoe co and those were Western costume company replicas not the originals
I read that a lot of the collection was sold off...i hope it went to the Academy of motion pictures museum to be preserved for others to enjoy, the way Todd Fisher had
It's amazing what some people think is junk. My brother met Miss Reynolds in Las Vegas. She was having a drink at the bar. He chatted with her for a bit and said she was absolutely lovely.
@mandykstewart HI, those are actually replica's, nobody knows exactly why Todd said they were the real ones? I would also ignore all the Appraised values, they are way off.
Well you were wrong mate !! Debbie made millions despite it breaking her heart that no one in filthy rich la land would help her establish a museum.Shameful.
not to be believed. Thank God it was the likes of Debbie Reynolds who knew how important these costumes were and they were saved. In the eventies they would have thrown them into the garbage. And yes, I am talking about the Bogart raincoat form Casablanca and the Marilyn Monroe dress from The seven years itch. So - good for you Debbie!
Where did her "close-up" pair of ruby slippers come from?? It's always been known that Ms. Reynolds owns the Arabian test pair, but I've never heard of her owning a 2nd pair. Is this news to anyone else??
yes unfortunatley this is missleading - those pair shown here ARE NOT the orginal ruby slippers from 1939 - these were produced in early 2000s by the western custome company as a promotion - the orginal pairs were created by the innes shoe co in 1939 :)
Now that dear Debbie is up in the sky a new star --who is going to care for H'wood costume memorabilia? Jennifer Aniston? don't think so Julia Roberts? no. today's stars only care about their careers--don't have class of Debbie's generation.
Debbie decided to sell her stock--the H'wood museum that was to house this flopped not her fault--her 3rd husband allegedly stole her funds--so she saw hand writing on wall and was noted on Oprah interview decided to sell the priceless pieces--she wanted the moneyf or her old age--and she made millions but she was also heart broken that H'wood's big moguls didn't come forward--and still don't---to safeguard one of the three great things Americagave the world--the other two jazz and democracy. Debbie was basically one women band preserving this priceless heritage--why didn't Spiegeberg or Lucas donate to a museum? They more than had the money!
windstorm1000 it is so true! Give me one name of a today's "star" who makes people dream? Yes,......no one. They are "normal and vulgar people. Just look at the tabloids.no class, at all. The worst is that young generation Bieber Miley whatever and company.
I hope he knows that the 'regular' style Ruby Slippers in that cabinet are NOT an original pair. These are the replicas that Western Costume Co. manufactured many years ago!?
Not the Arabian ruby slippers but the others were not used in the movie. Western Costume made pairs of those shoes to sell. I've contacted them once & told me they are for purchase. I believe they quoted me about $5,000.00
sadly her son lied about the ruby slippers. The pair Debbie had (and you can see the label in the close up) were a pair of replicas made by Western Costume, not an actual pair from the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz
@dannybex Yeah prices went crazy !! It's still only worth around 2k and was only worth around 600-800 when this video was taped, they'll never get their money back. It was a fun auction, I was the underbidder on the Julie Andrews Sound of Music Dress. We also missed out on her Guitar :( Hopefully we can pick something up in the December auction.
Aren’t the curled looking red shoes the ones the wicked witch of the east wore before they went onto Dorothy’s feet? (The shoes curled up on the witch and then beautiful red slippers appeared on Dorothy.) I love keeping sentimental things but this is a treasure trove of history that deserves to be seen. Love it!
Debbie Reynolds saved so much history. Forever she will be a gem not only on the screen but also behind the scenes!!!
Thank you, Debbie, for saving Hollywood history so we can cherish them forever. Rest in peace, dear lady, you deserve it.
There is only one great Debbie Reynolds. That's it. It's done!
Being a seamstress, and very nostalgic, I would love to just stand in the same room with this much history.
I would too--shame its all been dispersed.
What wonderful collection Debbie Reynolds has preserved. Todd Fisher it is great knowing your work carries forward your movie star Mom's brilliant business idea. Todd, you carry the touch well. Both your Mom, Debbie Reynolds, and your sister, Carrie Fisher must be very proud of you! Hooray for Todd Fisher, we applaud you.
sheila sheehan sorry to give you the bad news......Debbie sold all of it about a year ago.

@@kathyuk28 Hmmm...i don't think she sold EVERYTHING...a LOT of it. Apparently, Todd Fisher now owns the remainder.
She did have to sell a LOT after husband after husband bled her dry. But YES, Todd Fisher is a very good man and the stability of the family. Debbie could always count on him, and he loved Carrie through the awful highs and lows of bi-polar disorder and her endless drug addiction. But she wasn't always kind to him.

Hi Nacho, Where is this museum you mention? I've never heard of it. Do you know who it belongs too? Thanks
sorry to break the news--its all been actioned off years ago--this clip from 2009 or so
there is no museum. its closed and things auctioned off. all those h'wood moguls--none of them had Debbie's vision for preserving H'wood history. Things we treasure.

Thanks to Debbie Reynolds saving all these wonderful historic items. And thanks to her son for keeping them all in pristine shape. How wonderful
I can't believe the Hollywood elite couldn't get together and build a museum for her collection. Lovingly collected, very sad it has been broken up. Debbie Reynolds was a class act one of a kind .
she sure was--and she cared about the industry that made her famous--the tactile things too--dresses, cool things--wanted to preserve them
Thank you Debbie for salveging all these memorable costumes !!
I want to thank everybody who had the foresight to hold onto these Treasures and Miss Reynolds is at the top of the list what a phenomenal Warehouse of movie memorabilia I love the one from Valentino
I'm speechless. Thank you. Debbie lent costumes to the Land of Oz park,in the 1970's. Big part of my childhood.
If only we could live forever, to a very adorable lady Debbie Reynolds❤
If only I was alive in the 70’s, I would’ve been breaking bank on that stuff right along w Debbie.

I LOVE that Debbie and Eddie Fisher's son is so passionate about his mom's collecting!!
The amount of history here is absolutely mindblowing. How can a price tag even be put on these beautiful pieces?? It would be a huge privilege to be able to see this in person.
you can't. its all been auctioned off.
Thats so heartbreaking to hear. Miss Reynolds spent decades collecting all of this.
Astounding commitment by Debbie. God I could roam this collection forever and never fail to be dazzled or inspired. Great work done here for future generations to learn from, bravo.

What an I trees ting program. Thank goodness they were all saved. They are priceless.
Wonderful that Debbie Reynolds had the vision of saving all of these costumes and memorabilia for future preservation.
I'm sorry to tell you that all of it has been dispersed--but she did save it in a way--just not how she wanted.
This collection was phenomenal. I wish there was some way for the public to see all of these wonderful pieces. I’ve seen the ruby slippers at the Smithsonian a few times. I wish I could visit the new Academy Museum in Los Angeles. I can only imagine what will be on display when it opens.
So awesome she saved and collected all of this beautiful memorabilia.
I wish they could have opened a museum like they intended to.
There was a museum in Debbie's short lived LV Casino where a bit of it was displayed. Tod created a great show where a costume would appear on screen and then appear in a lighted rotating niche.
HI everybody, just an update on the above Ruby Slippers that some people think are real for some reason. They will be in Debbie's next auction in May 2014. And yes they will be listed as 'REPLICAS".

God Bless Debbie & her whole family!!!
"Olivia de Havallinde" hurts my eyes though....If they make that kind of mistake, I understand why they haven't identified hundreds of costumes !!!
That was a bit of a shock. You'd think they'd know better. And I agree, it makes you wonder about their research skills! Hopefully their conservation skills are better.
@@rabbit_scribe I had to check it twice to make sure I was right ! It's borderline ridiculous.
Hopefully it's been corrected by now since I imagine they were called out on it when this video was shown 🤔
I can say with 100% certainty, Todd Fisher knows his stuff!!!

Thank you for uploading this. It's fascinating.
Marilyn's white dress was definitely not purchased off the rack! It was thoughtfully designed by William Travilla, who designed most of her fashions for her Fox pictures.
I wonder why that woman thought that? Costumes were definitely not "off the rack" back then!!
This is amazing.... Thank you for posting this. Never had seen this before.
I'd LOVE to see a Marilyn Monroe exhibit. I wish I may, I wish I might.
Debbie Reynolds!! What a lady, what a sweetie for me for many years. : )
:)
1:58 "Olivia De Havallinde"??? The actress in that movie was Olivia de HAVILLAND.
All gone! Debbie sold everything because she had financial hardships. Don't think people now days probably would even care about these precious costumes!😨
God bless Debbie! Costumes matter.
I would love to own Marilyn Monroe's White Dress from "The Seven Year Itch." Love that movie.
What an amazing collection! Some beautiful items. That second outfit they showed (something to do with lights...

good for you. maybe you can post it so all can see--then Debbie's vision will atleast a little bit be vindicated.
Wonderful collection and loved your Mom 💖
1:59 - they spelt Olivia de Havilland's name wrong
And you spelled spelled wrong!
What a wonderfull collection, Debbie had a great hobby, had i the means id probably do something similiar.
I have the Wizard of Oz on dvd...I think I will watch it tonight after seeing this.
Amazing collection
This is INCREDIBLE !!
Fabulous!! Thank you for sharing.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

In the end, they were all auctioned off anyway. Sad, but thank you Debbie for helping preserve history.
The regular slippers in this were NOT used in the wizard of oz because the originals were made by the ines shoe co and those were Western costume company replicas not the originals
I see one hell of a huge auction in a couple of years wait and see
4 auctions happened years ago
Rest In Peace Debbie Reynolds. I have not heard anyone mention anything about the items you purchased in the past.
Todd, your mother was and still is a national treasure.
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE COLLECTION!!!🤯🤯🤯😍😍😍😍😍

Debbie u were the most graceful an pleasant person an carried yur pain very well ..thank you❤rest well sweet heart with yur baby⭐⭐🌹🌹🙏
0:52 Could that fuzzy pink coat on the left of the door be the one Shirley MacLaine wore in WHAT A WAY TO GO (1964)???
Glad Debbie saved those items of movie .
@mandykstewart HI, those are actually replica's, nobody knows exactly why Todd said they were the real ones? I would also ignore all the Appraised values, they are way off.
Well you were wrong mate !! Debbie made millions despite it breaking her heart that no one in filthy rich la land would help her establish a museum.Shameful.
This is amazing! I want EVERYTHING!
Mind boggling!!!!
not to be believed. Thank God it was the likes of Debbie Reynolds who knew how important these costumes were and they were saved. In the eventies they would have thrown them into the garbage. And yes, I am talking about the Bogart raincoat form Casablanca and the Marilyn Monroe dress from The seven years itch. So - good for you Debbie!
That was really interesting.
@4blackfairy That's exactly what he said but he was lying or misinformed - the slippers in this video are clear replicas.
Where did her "close-up" pair of ruby slippers come from?? It's always been known that Ms. Reynolds owns the Arabian test pair, but I've never heard of her owning a 2nd pair. Is this news to anyone else??

windstorm1000 it is so true! Give me one name of a today's "star" who makes people dream? Yes,......no one.
They are "normal and vulgar people. Just look at the tabloids.no class, at all.
The worst is that young generation Bieber Miley whatever and company.
Hopefully this will become a museum and protected by film
historians
Is the fluffy pink coat just before the one minute mark from What a Way to Go?
I hope he knows that the 'regular' style Ruby Slippers in that cabinet are NOT an original pair. These are the replicas that Western Costume Co. manufactured many years ago!?
I saw a show where they said she got all if the Rat Pack clothes, underwear and all.
That was amazing........
Amazing!
Not the Arabian ruby slippers but the others were not used in the movie. Western Costume made pairs of those shoes to sell. I've contacted them once & told me they are for purchase. I believe they quoted me about $5,000.00
So magnificent!
sadly her son lied about the ruby slippers. The pair Debbie had (and you can see the label in the close up) were a pair of replicas made by Western Costume, not an actual pair from the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz
She was gem!
@dannybex Yeah prices went crazy !! It's still only worth around 2k and was only worth around 600-800 when this video was taped, they'll never get their money back. It was a fun auction, I was the underbidder on the Julie Andrews Sound of Music Dress. We also missed out on her Guitar :( Hopefully we can pick something up in the December auction.
Love This ♥️♥️♥️
Excellent
I can't believe how they butchered the name of the great Olivia de Havilland!!! 1:58
AMAZING!!!!
@captmonk1 Exactly!! It should be in the 2 to 4k range
Aren’t the curled looking red shoes the ones the wicked witch of the east wore before they went onto Dorothy’s feet? (The shoes curled up on the witch and then beautiful red slippers appeared on Dorothy.) I love keeping sentimental things but this is a treasure trove of history that deserves to be seen. Love it!
I was thinking the same thing about the curled shoes and the witch.
@@happylittletrees5668 any big fan of the Wizard of Oz would know 😉 you’re like me 🌟
Those collectibles were not as valuable to Debbie as Carrie was!... May they Both Rest Peacefully
Olivia´s name is mispelled. Is 'Havilland'.
Excellent video.
Its too sad to think that Debbie is now gone.
(1:58) The correct spelling of the name is Olivia de Havilland.
No ones paying $25,000 for that Marie Antoinette Costume
This amazing collection its still in Debbies son hands? I thought everything went to auction about 5 years ago.....
Anyone else yelling at her to quit touching!!! 🤣
