A test pair with a different design that never appeared in The Movie is on exhibit at Debbie Reynolds' movie memorabilia museum in Las Vegas. And another pair may also be in Las Vegas, at the Planet Hollywood in the Caesar's Palace hotel. One pair often goes on tour to shopping malls. And one pair, owned by a private collector in California, is locked away in a safe deposit box. This may be the pair that was stolen during the Judy Garland Festival in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, in the summer of 2005."
