Lots sur Marilyn Monroe des enchères
'Entertainment & Music Memorabilia'
organisées le 11 novembre 2017
par Heritage Auctions à Dallas aux Etats-Unis.
Lot 89001: A Marilyn Monroe Unusual Inscribed 'Frame Glass' to Arthur Miller, Circa 1960.
A black and white photograph of the star circa 1956, looking wistful, housed in a black wooden frame with the glass signed by her in red wax pencil "I know when / I am not there / for you -- !!!" with her added line marks below forming what look like "X's" or "M's" or both but hard to decipher; consigned directly by the daughters of Aaron Frosch [Monroe's attorney] who said that when their father was handling MM's divorce from Arthur Miller, she gave Frosch a number of items she didn't want anymore, including this photograph which she evidently inscribed to Miller as an apology; interestingly, MM wrote this note with a colored wax pencil, the same kind she used to cross out images of herself on contact sheets that she didn't like; also intriguing to speculate about the photograph itself: it was likely a favorite of hers or Miller's and it was probably hanging somewhere in the couple's home where MM knew Miller would see her message on it. (Please note the inscription has changed to an orangish color and it's faded due to age.)
Matted and framed: 14 1/2" x 12" 
Lot 89002: A Marilyn Monroe Signed Document, 1952.

Document only: 10" x 8"; Overall piece: 24" x 34"

15/05/1960, Gene Kelly sur le tournage de "Let's Make Love"
Gene Kelly se trouve à Paris où il s'occupe de la chorégraphie du ballet "Pas de Dieux" à l'Opéra de Paris (les représentations au public se déroulent en juillet 1960). Il prend l'avion le dimanche 15 mai 1960, traversant près de 9 650 km, pour venir aux studios de la 20th Century Fox et y tenir le petit rôle où il donne des cours de danse au personnage d'Yves Montand (Jean Marc Clément). Arrivé à 9 heures du matin, son travail sur le plateau va durer deux heures, et il reste jusque midi (se faisant photographier en coulisses); puis il reprend l'avion lundi après-midi pour retourner à Paris et reprendre les répétitions du ballet le mardi matin.
Gene Kelly n'a pas été rémunéré, c'est à la suite d'une promesse qu'il avait faite, qu'il est venu offrir gracieusement sa présence.
Gene Kelly is in Paris where he prepares the ballet "Pas de Dieux" for showing at the Paris Opera House (public performances take place in July 1960). He takes the plane on a Sunday, May, 15 travelling 6,000 miles, going to the 20th Century-Fox studios to do a cameo bit on which he gives dance classes to the character of Yves Montand (Jean Marc Clement). He arrives on the set at 9 a.m and works two hours on the studio, but stays until noon (being photographied); and Monday afternoon is back on a jet winging Parisward to resume his ballet chores Tuesday morning.
Gene Kelly wasn't paid; it was after a promise he had made that he came graciously to offer his presence.

La voiture Thunderbird de Marilyn aux enchères
Les 16 et 17 novembre 2018, la vente aux enchères "Icons & Idols: Hollywood" organisée par Julien's Auction contiendra parmis ses lots la voiture Thunderbird que possédait Marilyn Monroe entre 1955 jusqu'en 1962.
La voiture est estimée entre 300 000 et 500 000 $
Sur le site de Julien's est relaté l'histoire de la voiture:
La Thunderbird décapotable de deux portes a été achetée le 20 décembre 1955 à Westport Motors (Westport- dans le Connecticut) sous le nom de sa société "Marilyn Monroe Productions" qu'elle avait créée avec son associé ami et photographe Milton Greene. Certains avancent le fait que la voiture seraitun cadeau de Noël de Greene.
Marilyn est photographiée dans cette voiture avec Arthur Miller en 1956 (série de photos de Paul Schutzer, en route pour le Connecticut) et 1957 (série de photos à New York par Sam Shaw).
On y apprend que Marilyn l'avait offerte, peu de temps avant sa mort survenue le 5 août 1962, à John Strasberg (le fils de Lee et Paula Strasberg, ses mentors de l'Actors Studio) qui fêtait ses 18 ans.

Description: site éditeur LyonsPress :
From the beginning of her modeling career in 1944 as Norma Jeane Mortensen to her death as the voluptuous Hollywood icon in 1962, Marilyn Monroe posed for thousands of modeling and publicity photos, scores of which have long been forgotten or abandoned in neglected studio archives. This book collects 100 of the rarest of the rare, seldom previously seen images of her brief modeling career, early days on the 20th Century Fox lot, then in candids between scene takes and traveling as a public figure as the wife of Arthur Miller and Joe DiMaggio. For the Monroe fans who think that they have seen it all, this book will provide a new lens on a beloved American icon.
