Auction History Result 2g009 MARILYN MONROE 8x10 still '60s famous Golden Dreams nude portrait originally from 1953! Date Sold 7/5/2012 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Publicity 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 Confidential Magazine ran a story about Marilyn Monroe in November of 1960 that was headlined "Why Marilyn Can't Ignore Those Stories Any More". We INITIALLY thought that this still was from that story, because of the several "CONFIDENTIAL" stamps on the back of the still, but a collector located that issue and tells us this image does not appear in that story. We don't know if this was used in a different issue of Confidential, or if it was rejected (because of the nudity). Please do not bid on this photo unless you can accept the uncertainty as to when and how it was used (the still appears to be from the 1960s, judging by the paper quality and the information on the back, but we can't say for certain). Also note that this still contains an unclothed woman, so we have placed a white bar over that area, for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual still does not have that white bar! Condition: good to very good. There are creases around the edges and some printer's marks in the right blank border.
