Existing comment: Dorothy's ruby slippers
1938
from the 1939 MGM The Wizard of Oz

In the modern fairy tale The Wizard of Oz, a brave American girl relies on ingenuity, courage, and imagination to make her way home from a faraway land. Released near the end of the Great Depression and just a month before Germany's invasion of Poland sparked World War II, the film's message of friendship and triumph over evildoers resonated with millions of viewers.
