Marilyn porte aussi des étoles en fourrure blanche lors de ses sorties médiatiques (gala, premières de films, remises de prix); mais elle ne pose plus en portraits typiques glamour en studio avec une étole blanche. Ce type de portraits représentant le glamour hollywoodien semble ne plus intéresser Marilyn. Elle travaille avec des photographes qu'elle sélectionne et qui renvoie une image plus naturelle d'elle: Milton Greene, Sam Shaw, Richard Avedon, Philippe Halsman, Earl Gustie, Eve Arnold, Douglas Kirkland et Bert Stern sont les photographes qui la prendront en studio de 1956 à 1962 et ne travaillant non plus pour les studios de cinéma, mais pour la presse (à travers les agences de presse ou des contrats publicitaires signés avec des magazines). Sans doute par ce choix, Marilyn semble signifier vouloir s'éloigner du diktat des studios et gagner en indépendance pour mieux contrôler son image véhiculée dans les médias.
Marilyn also wears white fur stoles during her media outings (gala, film premieres, awards ceremony); but she no longer poses in typical glamorous studio portraits with a white stole. This type of portrait representing Hollywood glamor seems no longer interests Marilyn. She works with photographers that she selects and who gives a more natural image of her: Milton Greene, Sam Shaw, Richard Avedon, Philippe Halsman, Earl Gustie, Eve Arnold, Douglas Kirkland and Bert Stern are the photographers who will take her in studio photos from 1956 to 1962 and no longer working for film studios, but for the press (through press agencies or advertising contracts signed with magazines). No doubt by this choice, Marilyn seems to signify wanting to move away from the diktat of the studios and gain independence to better control her image conveyed in the media.
La ville d'Hollywood est la mecque du cinéma américain et ce, depuis les années 1910s. Pour faire rêver les spectateurs et le public international, l'industrie cinématographique - à travers les diverses compagnies de studios (Universal, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, RKO, MGM, Warner, Goldwyn Mayer...) emploie des photographes pour sublimer et magnifier ses acteurs et ses actrices. Il faut vendre du rêve, de l'inaccessible, du glamour et les actrices d'Hollywood sont alors notamment photographiées en studio par des portraits en noir et blanc, jouant sur les ombres et lumières des éclairages, vêtues d'une fourrure en étole, un accessoire qui représente à lui seul le glamour, la grâce et le chic. Ces photographies qui sont à but publicitaires, sont ainsi destinées à être publiées dans la presse magazine afin de "vendre" ce rêve au public à travers le monde. Les actrices ne sont pas des personnes lambdas que l'on croise au hasard d'une rue, elles deviennent ainsi par ces images des icônes mystifiées et iréelles.
Et chaque studio a son photographe portraitiste attitré, petite liste (non exhaustive) des noms les plus connus et répandus des photographes, par ordre alphabétique: Kenneth Alexander, Ted Allan, Virgil Apger, Max Munn Autrey, Ernest Bachrach, Russell Ball, Clarence Sinclair Bull, Eric Carpenter, Robert Coburn, Otto Dyar, John Engstead, Tom Evans, Bud Fraker, Jack Freulich, Elmer Fryer, Edwin Bower Hesser, George Hurrell, Ray Jones, Eugene Kornman, Irving Lippmann, Gaston Longet, Ruth Harriet Louise, John Miehle, Frank Powolny, Eugene Robert Richee, AL Whitey Schaefer, Bert Six, Laszlo Willinger.
Les photographes "stars" renommés étant George Hurrell, Clarence Sinclair Bull, Robert Coburn, Eugene Robert Richee et Frank Powolny, qui à eux seuls, ont bien photographié l'ensemble des acteurs et actrices d'Hollywood entre 1930 et 1960.
Ces portraits font partis de la machine à rêve véhiculée par les studios d'Hollywood et se déploie dès les années 1920s (quand les acteurs et actrices du cinéma muet deviennent des stars aux yeux du public) trouvant son apogée dans les années 1940s et 1950s. Mais dans les années 1960s, ce type de photographies s'essoufle, les moeurs changent et les nouvelles idoles veulent transmettre une image plus naturelle (la culture hippie et son esprit de liberté est passée par là); ces images suivent d'ailleurs aussi la tendance cinématographique avec l'arrivée du mouvement de la nouvelle vague en France et ses répercussions dans le cinéma international et américain et les nouveaux réalisateurs d'alors (les années 1970s avec Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola) mettant en scène un cinéma plus vrai et balayant le glamour de leur prédécesseurs. Alors les paillettes et le glamour est récupéré par le mouvement musical qui bat son plein dans les années 1970s: le disco. Mais ce type de photographies n'est plus en vogue et finit par s'éteindre totalement: les portraits des actrices sublimées et glamourisées avec une étole de fourrure s'inscrivent alors dans une époque bien déterminée, considérée aujourd'hui comme le "classique du vintage hollywoodien".
The city of Hollywood is the mecca of American cinema since the 1910s. To make the spectators and the international public dream, the film industry - through the various studio companies (Universal, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, RKO, MGM, Warner, Goldwyn Mayer ...) employs photographers to sublimate and magnify its actors and actresses. They have to sell dreams, the inaccessible, glamor and Hollywood actresses are then photographed in the studio with black and white portraits, playing on the shadows and lights, dressed in a fur stole, an accessory that alone represents glamor, grace and chic. These photographs, which are for advertising purposes, are thus intended to be published in the magazine press in order to "sell" this dream to the public throughout the world. Actresses are not ordinary people that one crosses at random on a street, they thus become, through these images, mystified and unreal icons. And each studio has its own portrait photographer, a small (non-exhaustive) list of the most famous and widespread names of photographers, in alphabetical order: Kenneth Alexander, Ted Allan, Virgil Apger, Max Munn Autrey, Ernest Bachrach, Russell Ball, Clarence Sinclair Bull, Eric Carpenter, Robert Coburn, Otto Dyar, John Engstead, Tom Evans, Bud Fraker, Jack Freulich, Elmer Fryer, Edwin Bower Hesser, George Hurrell, Ray Jones, Eugene Kornman, Irving Lippmann, Gaston Longet, Ruth Harriet Louise, John Miehle, Frank Powolny, Eugene Robert Richee, AL Whitey Schaefer, Bert Six, Laszlo Willinger.
Renowned "star" photographers are George Hurrell, Clarence Sinclair Bull, Robert Coburn, Eugene Robert Richee and Frank Powolny, who alone have photographed all of Hollywood's actors and actresses between 1930 and 1960.
These portraits are part of the dream machine conveyed by Hollywood studios and unfold from the 1920s (when silent film actors and actresses became stars in the eyes of the public) reaching their peak in the 1940s and 1950s. But in the 1960s, this type of photography lost its breath, customs changed and the new idols wanted to convey a more natural image (the hippie culture and its spirit of freedom has passed through this); these images also follow the cinematographic trend with the arrival of the new wave movement in France and its repercussions in international and American cinema and the new directors of the time (the 1970s with Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola) putting in scene a cinema more true and sweeping the glamor of their predecessors. Then the glitter and the glamor is recovered by the musical movement which is in full swing in the 1970s: the disco. But this type of photography is no longer in vogue and ends up being completely extinct: the portraits of sublimated and glamorized actresses with a fur stole are then part of a well-defined period, considered today as the "classic of vintage hollywood ".

Lot 143: MARILYN MONROE WORN BLACK COLOBUS COAT
A mid-1940s black colobus coat worn by Marilyn Monroe to the 1948 film premiere of The Emperor Waltz (Paramount, 1948). The coat has broad shoulders, a cordé collar, a satin lining, and a Jerrold's Van Nuys, Calif. label. Although the black colobus is currently on the endangered species list, it was quite fashionable in the 1940s. Monroe wrote in a letter to Grace Goddard dated December 3, 1944, "I found out that its [sic] possible to buy a Gold Coast Monkey Coat. I shall write to you about it later." The coat was gifted from Monroe to Jacquita M. Rigoni (Warren), who was the great-niece to Anne Karger, mother of Monroe's voice coach, Freddie Karger. Monroe had a close relationship with the family, and the coat has remained in their possession. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Jacqui Rigoni detailing the family's relationship to Monroe and the history of the coat.
The monkey species used to make this Marilyn Monroe monkey fur coat is on the Endangered Species list. U.S. Endangered Species Act regulations required by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service impose certain regulations on the sale of this coat. Please read the following carefully:
Please read the following carefully: The Marilyn Monroe monkey fur coat may be sold to a resident of California without requiring a Federal permit. A non-California resident may bid on this coat and if he or she were the winning bidder could apply for a Federal permit to remove the coat from the state of California. Julien’s has been advised that a Federal permit would likely be REFUSED by the governing offices. It is vehemently advised that non-residents of California DO NOT bid on this Marilyn Monroe owned monkey fur coat. If you bid on this lot and are unable to obtain a permit Julien’s has no liability and will be unable to refund you for your purchase.
A California resident who purchases this coat and later moves from California to another state would not be required to obtain a permit if he or she maintained ownership of the coat when changing state of residence. However, the owner would need to make sure there are no state regulations prohibiting the transfer of the coat from one state to another.

The frame and guard are embellished with floral motif carvings embellished with pink, blue, and gold-metallic paint. The accompanying letter from the consignor explains that the fan was gifted by Monroe to William Louis George Le Brun, known as Louis Le Brun in the film industry, who was the Chief Production Accountant for Warner Bros. in the United Kingdom. When Monroe was taken ill while filming, Le Brun, who was responsible for overseeing the distribution of all finances, which involved the insurance and wellbeing of the cast and production team, stayed by her side. As a thank-you, Monroe gave him this fan, or more specifically gave the fan to his wife as an apology for keeping Le Brun from his family. At the time the fan was received several of the fan blades were broken, presumed to be from use during filming. The fan has remained in the possession of the Le Brun family since the gift was made by Monroe.

Lot 155: MARILYN MONROE BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S SCRIPT AND REPORT
A clean copy of the screenplay for Breakfast at Tiffany's written by George Axelrod and dated July 9, 1959. Monroe was considering the part, and she sought the opinions of her professional team including the Strasbergs, her husband, and management team. The script is accompanied by a single-page, typed "report" dated September 23, 1959, which also has the name "Parone" typed to the left of the date. Literary luminary Edward Parone was at the time running Monroe's production company and most likely is the one who wrote this single-page, scathing review of the script, leading with the simple sentence, "I think not." It goes on to criticize the screenplay, determining, "I can see Marilyn playing a part like Holly and even giving this present one all the elan it badly needs, but I don't feel she should play it: it lacks insight and warmth and reality and importance." It has been long reported that Monroe declined the part upon the advice of Lee Strasberg, but this document provides further evidence that other people in her inner circle advised her not to take the role. Together with a four-page shooting schedule for November 4, 1960, for the film.

Lot 158: MARILYN MONROE MEDICAL FILE
A medical file pertaining to cosmetic surgery performed on Marilyn Monroe. The file includes facial X-rays and doctors' notes from the office of Dr. Michael Gurdin, M.D., and the X-ray office of Drs. Conti and Steinberg. Dr. Gurdin's chart on Monroe begins on July 14, 1958, and lists the patient as Marilyn Miller with addresses in New York and Los Angeles. The chief complaint listed is "chin deformity" and goes on to give a medical history that begins in 1950 and ends in 1962. Listed are a 1956 bout of neutropenia in England; 1957 ectopic pregnancy in New York; and 1950 cartilage implant in chin that the doctor observed had slowly begun to dissolve. Those with knowledge of the implant procedure have explained that this was done in association with a tip rhinoplasty, a procedure involving the tip of Monroe's nose only, not the bones. The last entry is dated June 7, 1962, and reports a fall at between 2 and 3 a.m. resulting in swelling and tenderness of the nose. Monroe was brought to Dr. Gurdin by her psychoanalyst, Dr. Ralph Greenson. Monroe was referred to Drs. Conti and Steinberg for X-rays. For her visit to the radiologists she was given the alias "Miss Joan Newman," and that name appears on the paperwork with Monroe's Brentwood home address. Six X-rays are in the folder: a frontal facial bones X-ray; a smaller X-ray that is a composite of the right and left sides of her nasal bones; and four small dental X-rays into the roof of Monroe's mouth, looking upward toward the nasal bones. The conclusion, written by Dr. Conti and dated June 7, 1962, is that there was no damage to Monroe's nose due to her fall. A more recent evaluation of the X-rays indicates a very minute hairline fracture of this bone. Monroe had turned 36 less than a week earlier. On June 8, the following day, Monroe was fired from the film Something's Got to Give (20th Century Fox, 1962).
