Best Answer

Judy Garland was 16 when she made "The Wizard of Oz," and 17 when it was released.

The movie was released in 1939 and Judy was born in 1922: 17 years' difference! But the fact is that by the time Judy's 17th birthday came around (on June 10, 1939), she was busy at work on "Babes in Arms." Principal filming on "Oz" began in September 1938 (she was 16), and was completed around the end of March 1939.

More detailed info:

Judy Garland was born on June 10, 1922, so she was 16.4-16.8 years old when she filmed her 7th movie, "The Wizard of Oz."

Judy Garland was born Frances Ethel Gumm in Grand Rapids, Minnesota in 1922. She started performing at the age of three, and was 16 in 1939 when she did the Wizard of Oz. Presumably she had reached her full adult height of 4 ft. 11.5 inches. Garland received a special Juvenile Oscar for her performance, which include her theme song, Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

How much are the ruby slippers worth?

In the beloved 1939 film version of 'The Wizard of Oz', the Ruby Red Slippers belonged to the Wicked Witch of the East. But they were given to Dorothy Gale as thanks for having killed the Witch albeit accidentally. The slippers had to fit the feet of actress Frances Ethel Gumm ka Judy Garland [June 10, 1922-June 22, 1969], who wore shoe size 5-6.


What size are Dorothy's slippers in the original Wizard of Oz?

Each pair of ruby slippers is a slightly different size. Those in the Smithsonian are both 5C and 5BC, as they are not a matching set. Another pair, previously owned by collector Michael Shaw before they were stolen in 2005 were similarly, if oppositely, sized. Another pair, believed to be used for close-ups, are size 5B, while a larger pair exist, size 6B, which many people believe were not used by Judy Garland, but rather by her stand-in.
