A group of three vintage original black and white photographs of Marilyn Monroe at the Honolulu International airport in Hawaii during her honeymoon with Joe DiMaggio in 1954. The photographs were taken by a photographer who was tipped off that Monroe and DiMaggio were waiting in a secluded area of the airport. He and a friend, who was stationed in Hawaii with the Navy, went to photograph the newlyweds. The photographer gave the photographs he could not use to the friend, who kept them in his photo book of his time during the war and later sold the photographs at auction. Presumably, these photographs were never released for print. Monroe's thumb is bandaged, and some have accused DiMaggio of inflicting the injury. One of the images can be found in the biography Marilyn: The Passion and the Paradox by Lois Banner (New York: Bloomsbury, 2012).

Lot 821: MARILYN MONROE CECIL BEATON TRIPTYCH
A three-panel sterling silver custom-made Cartier frame, gifted to Marilyn Monroe by Nedda and Joshua Logan. The center frame houses a black and white silver gelatin print of the portrait Cecil Beaton took of Monroe in 1956. This image is purported to be Monroe’s favorite image of herself. The portrait is mounted to board and signed on matte by Beaton. The center frame is engraved at the top “For Marilyn Monroe Miller” and at the bottom “Love Nedda and Joshua Logan.” Joshua Logan directed Monroe in her 1956 film Bus Stop . The left and right frames house a handwritten letter from Beaton describing Monroe. It reads in part, “But the real marvel is the paradox – somehow we know that this extraordinary performance is pure charade, a little girl’s caricature of Mae West. The puzzling truth is that Miss Monroe is a make-believe siren, unsophisticated as a Rhine maiden, innocent as a sleepwalker. She is an urchin pretending to be grown-up, having the time of her life in mother’s moth-eaten finery, tottering about in high-heeled shoes and sipping gingerale as though it were a champagne cocktail. There is an otherworldly, a winsome naiveté about the child’s eyes… .” The portrait can be seen in images of Monroe’s living room, where it was housed from 1956 until the actress’ death in 1962.
Please note: This item will not be available for shipment or pick-up until January 1, 2015.

9/09/1954 Arrivée à New York
Le 8 septembre 1954, Marilyn Monroe s'envole à 21 heures de Los Angeles, d'où Joe DiMaggio est venu l'accompagner à l'aéroport pour l'embrasser et lui dire au revoir, pour se rendre à New York, où elle doit tourner des scènes extérieures du film The Seven Year Itch (Sept ans de réflexion). Joe ne l'accompagne pas. Elle porte un tailleur moulant avec un gros noeud, une tenue qu'elle a emprunté aux studios, qu'elle avait porté dans There's no business like show business (La joyeuse parade) dont le tournage venait à peine de se terminer.
>> Le départ de Los Angeles
Arrivée à l'aéroport de New York le lendemain, le 9 septembre à 8h15, le Idlewild Airport, Marilyn est assaillie par la foule de curieux et de journalistes: des reporters, des photographes et même les caméras sont présentes. Marilyn se prête au jeu et prend la pose longuement sur le tarmac; puis, escortée par la police, elle rentre dans le hall de l'aéroport, où elle est interviewée.
Parmi les photographes présents: Sam Schulman, Paul Schumach, Weegee, Sam Shaw.
