According to TMZ, a piece of movie history is going up for auction. The oil can used to oil up the Wizard Of Oz’s Tin Man is being auctioned off by Kruse GWS Auctions.
The oil can could sell for up to $200,000 making it a high-dollar item that ranks up there with Dorothy’s ruby red slippers. Fun Fact: There were four pairs of ruby slippers and one pair sold for $2 million. Is there an item that is considered movie memorabilia that would you like to have?
The world of TV and movies is filled with numerous fictional locales. From the fanciful to the funny, here are ten fictional places from TV and movies we wish we could visit.
Wakanda

Monstropolis

Themyscira/Paradise Island

Radiator Springs

Dillon, Texas
Frederick M. Brown/Getty ImagesSure, there's plenty of drama in Dillon, but taking in a Friday night football game would be an incredible experience. At the end of the day, the mood could be summed up in two words: Texas forever.
Gilligan's Island

Stars Hollow, CT
Warner Bros./Delivered by Online USA/Getty ImagesAll of the town festivals! All of the town characters! A visit to Stars Hollow would be amazing for people-watching alone. Of course, a meal at Luke's Diner or Al's Pancake World would be a must.
Springfield

Pawnee, IN
Jason Kempin/Getty ImagesPawnee is seemingly the biggest-little town in Indiana. They have nightlife (Snakehole Lounge, Cozy's Bar), they have plenty of restaurants (JJ's Diner, Tom's Bistro), they have...well...beautiful parks! Oh, and they have some of the best government workers ever, Jeremy Jamm excluded.
Emerald City
