Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio

Marilyn Monroe (born Norma Jeane Mortenson; June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962), American actress, authentic, vintage, unsigned 8.5 x 7 glossy black and white photograph. A true icon - actress, model, singer and sex symbol - who made her lasting mark on Hollywood over the course of the 1950s and 1960s. Her cinematic repertoire includes such classics as "The Asphalt Jungle," "Niagara," "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," "How to Marry a Millionaire," "The Seven Year Itch," "Bus Stop" and "Some Like It Hot." Although the final years of her life were plagued with personal issues and controversy surrounding her alleged "suicide," Monroe is remembered as a quintessential sex symbol, her image still lending inspiration to modern-day art and culture.

Capturing a beautiful moment between Monroe and then husband, Joe DiMaggio, pencil notations on the back identify the shot: "Actress Marilyn Monroe laughs at a joke made by her husband, former baseball player Joe DiMaggio as they dine at El Morocco here tonight. Joe flies into town to visit with Marilyn who is making a picture on location here." Also bears an AP Wire stamp, with a penciled-in date of 9-12-1954.

In fine condition, with some light surface and edge creasing, and trimmed edges.
