An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 5 3/4" x 8" [15 x 20 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Marilyn Monroe is one of the greatest larger-than-life movie stars ever of the 1950s, and surely the greatest sex symbol of all time! She appeared in several memorable movies including: Some Like It Hot, The Prince & the Showgirl, All About Eve, The Asphalt Jungle, The Misfits, The Seven Year Itch, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Monkey Business, and Niagara. The last film that she worked on was Something's Got To Give in 1962. 20th Century Fox blamed Marilyn for the production being behind schedule, and fired her in June (the film was never completed). In August, she was found dead in her home from an apparent drug overdose, and her death was ruled a suicide (though there are theories that foul play was involved, and even in 2024, many people do not feel it was an "accidental" death). Important Added Info: Note that Marilyn posed twice for Andre de Dienes, once in 1945 at the beach in Oyster Bay, Long Island, and again in 1952 at the Bel Air Hotel in California. We would think that this portrait is surely from the first session (it is clearly on the beach, and Marilyn seems to surely have her pre-plastic surgery nose!), and it has stamps on the back from de Dienes. If anyone knows more about this still, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 5 3/4" x 8" [15 x 20 cm]. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: very good. The still appears to have been very neatly trimmed. We don't know what size it originally was, or whether it was trimmed before or after distribution. Otherwise, it is in really nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
