lot 981: MARILYN MONROE INSCRIBED PHOTOGRAPH
A photograph of Marilyn Monroe mounted to board and inscribed on the board “Oh George,/ You’re a genius!/ Marilyn Monroe.” The black and white image was taken by Cecil Beaton and said to be Monroe’s favorite image of herself.
The consignor relates that in the late 1950s he attended an event at Frank Sinatra’s Palm Springs home as a guest of Sammy Davis Jr. The consignor remembers the photograph being given by Monroe, who was also a guest of Sinatra’s, to Davis’ valet, whom he named as “George.” This is a possible inaccuracy and may have been given to Frank Sinatra’s longtime valet, George Jacobs. The consignor was given the image by the valet George, who said he could not take the item back to Los Angeles. The consignor has had the photograph in his possession since that time.

13/03/1952 Interview d'Aline Mosby
La journaliste d'investigation Aline Mosby, qui travaillait au bureau de Los Angeles d'UPI -United Press International- est la première à avoir découvert que Marilyn Monroe avait posé nue pour un calendrier en 1949 (les photos de Tom Kelley). La journaliste serait parvenue à retrouver le calendrier en février 1952. On raconte que c'est Jerry Wald, le producteur du film Clash by night (Le démon s'éveille la nuit) dans lequel jouait Marilyn et produit par la RKO, qui aurait soufflé l'affaire à la journaliste. Sans doute y voyait-il le moyen de faire du tapage autour de l'actrice et ainsi une bonne publicité pour le film. Marilyn étant sous contrat avec la Fox (qui l'avait juste prêtée à la RKO pour qu'elle tourne Clash by night), elle fut convoquée immédiatement dans les bureaux où les dirigeants lui demandèrent de nier en bloc. Mais Marilyn ne voulait pas mentir et les persuada de livrer sa version des faits. Ainsi, Marilyn, alors en plein tournage de Don't Bother to Knock (Troublez-moi ce soir), fut interviewée par Aline Mosby qui publia l'entretien le 13 mars 1952 dans la presse américaine. Marilyn y raconta simplement qu'elle était sans le sou et perdue. Les médias ont plutôt majoritairement bien acceuillis la nouvelle et Marilyn gagna la compassion du public.
