Description

Mesmerizing signed portrait of Marilyn in her breakthrough year

Vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of Monroe reclining on a pillow and wearing a low-cut dress and diamond jewelry, a pose from circa 1953, signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint, "To Sandra, Warmest regards, Marilyn Monroe." In very good to fine condition, with scattered creasing, some of which passes over Marilyn's face. A classic, virtually pristine portrait of the blonde bombshell captured at the peak of her fame—in 1953, Monroe became a household name when she starred in three hit films: Niagara, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and How to Marry a Millionaire. Encapsulated in a PSA/DNA authentication holder.
