DS, one page, 8.5 x 11, May 1, 1951. Final page of a 16 page agreement between Monroe and Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, neatly signed at the conclusion in dark blue fountain pen, “Marilyn Monroe,” and countersigned by Notary Public Marion Lee and Fox Studio Treasurer. Twentieth Century Fox had signed Monroe to a one year contract in 1946, but let it lapse. Monroe went on to do work for Columbia, appearing most notably in Asphalt Jungle. Monroe’s performances in Jungle and All About Eve reinvigorated Fox’s interest and, in 1951, she signed a seven-year contract with the studio. In fine condition, with filing holes to left edge, two tape remnants to reverse top edge, and two office stamps and notary seal. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
