 Lot 57: Marilyn Monroe 1960/1970s Small Black and White Snapshot
A circa 1970s later print; glossy finish, on Kodak paper, depicting the star (wearing a Jean Louis dress, lot 58) as she sits next to John Huston and Clark Gable at a birthday party for Kay Gable; the cast and crew threw a surprise party for Gable's wife at the Mapes Hotel in Reno, Nevada on August 5, 1960 where they were all on location filming "The Misfits."
Estimate: $50 - $100 / Sold Price: $260

 Lot 58: Marilyn Monroe 1960 Jean Louis "Misfits" Press Conference Worn Dress with Book
 An original Jean Louis painted-silk jersey cocktail dress worn by Marilyn Monroe for The Misfits (United Artists, 1961) cast press conference in the summer of 1960. Jean Louis' design consists of a cream/beige silk jersey with a painted abstract pattern in watercolors and light brush strokes that mirror the lightness of the fabric. The dress has a fitted bodice with hand-gathered pleats that are hand-sewn into place. The bodice and skirt are sewn just below the waistline, while the skirt is also hand-pleated and accompanied by a sash/tie on both sides of the dress to cinch it and offer more definition. The abstract print contains magenta and shades of green and brown. The print has circular rings that appear to ripple. The bodice and skirt are lined with a chiffon crepe, and the bodice has a lining hand-sewn inside and fitted in contrast to the outer layer of the skirt. A concealed zipper has hook-and-eyes that hide the closure. The hem of the skirt lands below the knee and is hand-tacked, beautifully constructed, and designed specifically for Marilyn, who was a fan of wearing silk jersey fabrics. There is no size label present, but there is a designer label that reads "Jean Louis," along with pen notations in black ink reading. "MM #2." The skirt has moderate discoloration with minor staining. Jean Louis Berthault was an Academy Award-winning costume designer whose effortless designs helped make stars more glamorous. He was the first costume designer to receive a "Gowns By" screen credit. Jean Louis' nude illusion dress for Marilyn that she wore on May 19, 1962, became one of the most famous gowns in pop culture, selling in 2016 for $4.8 million dollars, the most expensive piece of pop culture memorabilia of all time.  
PROVENANCE: Christie's The Personal Property of Marilyn Monroe, Lot 138, October 27-28, 1999
Estimate: $60,000 - $80,000 / Sold Price: $78,000

 Lot 59: Marilyn Monroe Framed Poster
A framed Marilyn Monroe poster of the iconic image of the actress applying Chanel N°5. When Monroe was interviewed for her first cover story for Life Magazine on April 7, 1952, the interviewer asked her what she wore to bed, to which she famously replied, "I only wear Chanel N°5," leading fragrance sales to skyrocket. This comment was made before design houses used celebrities to endorse products; Monroe was the creator of a luxury celebrity marketing campaign. The poster comes in a frame. 
Estimate: $100 - $200 / Sold Price: $390

 Lot 61: Marilyn Monroe Circa 1950s Minaudiere Evening Purse from the Personal Collection of Dee and Tommy Hilfiger

 A small cylindrical-shaped piece made of gold-tone metal, either end adorned with an elaborate citrine floret, opens to reveal three compartments: the first holds a tiny hair comb and a tube of lipstick [by Dorothy Gray, shade is called 'Jewel of India']; the second is a compact [some powder still intact], a powder puff, and an affixed mirror; the third is concave to hold other items --  in Marilyn's case, eight Philip Morris cigarettes and two Mercury dimes dated 1943 and 1945; piece is marked on the compact's lid "Wadsworth / Made in U.S.A.;" together with its original black velvet cover and its box reading "Pandora by Wadsworth." In 2016, world-renowned designers Tommy and Dee Hilfiger won this purse at the Julien's Auctions sale of Lee Strasberg's personal property. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this item will benefit NEXT for AUTISM.
Dimensions: 4.25 x 2 inches
PROVENANCE: Originally sold in the Julien's Auctions sale titled "Property from the Estate of Lee Strasberg," Sale #160, November 17, 2016, Lot 452; included is the original lot tag.
Estimate: $100,000 - $200,000 / Unsold

 Lot 62: Marilyn Monroe 1954 Jeans from "River of No Return" from the Personal Collection of Dee and Tommy Hilfiger

 20th Century Fox, 1954. A pair of classic denim blue jeans; three front pockets, zip fly, button marked "Foremost J.C.P. Co. [J.C. Penney Company], two back pockets with a double line of horizontal yellow stitching, evident tailoring at waist and hips; inside label reads " 1-68-1-0435 Helen /Thurston A-713" [Monroe's stunt double]; small rip on back left side under the pocket, purposeful distressing on the front legs; worn by both Monroe and her double as "Kay Weston." Evidently, Marilyn and Thurston must have interchanged jeans during production because this pair ended up being in Marilyn's possessions when she died in 1962. The waistband and the hips have been taken in on this pair, likely for Marilyn's exact measurements, which is possibly why she took them home with her after filming wrapped. Decades later, in October 1999, world-renowned clothing designer Tommy Hilfiger won these jeans at the Christie's New York auction of Monroe's personal property. He had them framed in a shadowbox which hung in his office for over 20 years, until now when he decided to offer them in this auction. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this item will benefit NEXT for AUTISM.
PROVENANCE: Originally sold in the Christie's New York auction titled "The Personal Property of Marilyn Monroe," Sale #9216, October 27-28, 1999, as part of Lot 7 which included three pairs of jeans, this pair being one of them.
Estimate: $30,000 - $50,000 / Sold Price: $52,000

Lot 63: Marilyn Monroe 1961  Cowboy Boots from "The Misfits" from the Personal Collection of Dee and Tommy Hilfiger

United Artists, 1961. A traditional pair by Hyer; tan leather with yellow and green stitching on the toe and shaft, pull straps, block heel, size 7 1/2 B; worn by the star as "Roslyn Tabor" in her last completed film, most prominently in the intense scene where she screams out "Murderers!" to a confused Clark Gable and Eli Wallach, but Montgomery Clift gets it.
In October 1999, world-renown clothing designer, Tommy Hilfiger, won these boots at the Christie's New York auction of Monroe's personal property. He had them framed in a shadowbox which hung in his office for over 20 years until now, when he decided to offer them in this auction.

MOVIES
TAKING CINEMASCOPE LYING DOWN
.
It began to look as if CinemaScope was the answer. Eight weeks after it had released "The Robe" (LIFE, July 27) 20th Century Fox reported it had broken records in movie houses across the country and grossed more than $8 million. But "The Robe" was a Biblical spectacle, well-suited to CinemaScope's extra-wide screen. What would happen when Hollywood tried to force light comedies into the new mold ? How could you shoot a close-up of a pretty girl with all that waste space on each side ? Partial answer came last week with CinemaScope's second try, "How to Marry a Millionaire," a swank little fable of three Manhattan models who get trapped by true love while hunting rich men. In it the close-up problem was neatly solved by shooting the stars lying down. By week's end it was running neck and neck with "The Robe" at the box office in three cities.

LE CINEMASCOPE EN POSITION ALLONGÉE
.
Tout semblait indiquer que le CinemaScope était la solution. Huit semaines après la sortie de « La Tunique » (LIFE, 27 juillet), la 20th Century Fox annonçait des records d'entrées dans les salles de cinéma à travers le pays, avec plus de 8 millions de dollars de recettes. Mais « La Tunique » était un spectacle biblique, parfaitement adapté à l'écran extra-large du CinemaScope. Qu'adviendrait-il si Hollywood tentait d'adapter les comédies légères à ce nouveau format ? Comment filmer un gros plan d'une jolie femme avec tout cet espace vide de chaque côté ? Une réponse partielle est apparue la semaine dernière avec la deuxième tentative du CinemaScope, « Comment épouser un millionnaire », une fable élégante mettant en scène trois mannequins new-yorkaises prises au piège par le grand amour alors qu'elles recherchent des hommes riches. Dans ce film, le problème du gros plan a été astucieusement résolu en filmant les acteurs allongés. À la fin de la semaine, il était au coude à coude avec « La Tunique » au box-office dans trois villes.

In may, JFK would have been 70 years old.
Exclusive photographs recall a famous celebration 
COCKTAILS AT CAMELOT
It was 25 years ago, and on May 29, 1962, President John F. Kennedy would turn 45. In New York the event was celebrated 10 days early with a spirited fund-raiser at Madison Square Garden, followed by a pre- birthday bash at the Manhattan town house of Arthur Krim, then president of United Artists. Though the press was barred from the party, Army photographer Cecil Stough- ton-assigned to cover Kennedy's term in of- fice-was allowed to attend. His unpub- lished photographs capture the fleeting wisps of glamour that characterized the
evening. A year and a half later Stoughton was to take the picture for which he is best known: Lyndon John- son, flanked by his wife and a stricken Jacqueline Kennedy, being sworn in as President aboard Air Force One in Dallas..

- Below, as Adlai Stevenson (center) looks on, the President greets Maria Callas, who sang two arias from Carmen at the Garden.
- At Madison Square Garden, Monroe purred a sultry, unforgettable rendition of "Happy Birthday" to John Kennedy. Later, the President quipped that he could now retire from politics, having had the song "sung to me in such a sweet, wholesome way."

COCKTAILS AU CAMELOT
Il y a 25 ans, le 29 mai 1962, le président John F. Kennedy fêtait ses 45 ans. À New York, l'événement fut célébré dix jours plus tôt par une soirée de levée de fonds animée au Madison Square Garden, suivie d'une réception pré-anniversaire dans la résidence new-yorkaise d'Arthur Krim, alors président d'United Artists. Bien que la presse fût interdite d'accès, le photographe de l'armée Cecil Stoughton, chargé de couvrir le mandat de Kennedy, fut autorisé à y assister. Ses photographies inédites capturent les instants de glamour fugaces qui caractérisèrent la soirée. Un an et demi plus tard, Stoughton allait prendre la photo qui le rendit célèbre: Lyndon Johnson, entouré de sa femme et d'une Jacqueline Kennedy émue, prêtant serment comme président à bord d'Air Force One à Dallas.

THE PARTY FAITHFUL GATHER
In addition to the performers, guests at the Krim party included such political aides as Kenneth O'Donnell, Larry O'Brien, Sargent Shriver and Anna Rosenberg, a former assistant secretary of de- fense for manpower and cochair- man of the earlier affair at Madison Square Garden. There President Kennedy-Jackie did not accompany him to New York- sat puffing a cigar, feet propped on the rail, while he and some 12,000 loyal Democrats were treated to two and a half hours of song, dance and jokes, most of them aimed at the President.
Said Jack Benny, one of the evening's MCs: "The amazing thing to me is how a man in a rocking chair can have such a young wife." Mike Nichols and Elaine May read a series of fake telegrams to the President from heads of state, and co- median Elliott Reid did a JFK impersonation.
When it was all over, Ken- nedy addressed the rally, saying he was "proud to be in a politi- cal party which can produce this extraordinary talent."

RÉUNION DES FIDÈLES DU PARTI
Outre les artistes, la soirée chez Krim réunissait des conseillers politiques tels que Kenneth O'Donnell, Larry O'Brien, Sargent Shriver et Anna Rosenberg, ancienne secrétaire adjointe à la Défense chargée des effectifs et coprésidente de la précédente réception au Madison Square Garden. Là, le président Kennedy – Jackie ne l'avait pas accompagné à New York – fumait un cigare, les pieds appuyés sur la rambarde, tandis que lui et quelque 12 000 démocrates fidèles profitaient de deux heures et demie de chansons, de danses et de plaisanteries, la plupart à son encontre.
Jack Benny, l'un des maîtres de cérémonie, déclara : « Ce qui me sidère, c'est qu'un homme assis dans un fauteuil à bascule puisse avoir une épouse aussi jeune.» Mike Nichols et Elaine May lurent une série de faux télégrammes adressés au président par des chefs d'État, et le comédien Elliott Reid imita JFK. Une fois le spectacle terminé, Kennedy prit la parole lors du rassemblement, déclarant être « fier d'appartenir à un parti politique capable de produire un talent aussi exceptionnel ».

MIXING POLITICS AND PIZZAZZ
For many at the party, the memo- ry that has lasted longest is of Marilyn Monroe. This may be due to what she was-or wasn't- wearing. Hollywood costume de- signer Jean-Louis, who created her $5,000 dress, commented that it was made of "nude, very thin material, embroidered with rhinestones so she would shine in the spotlight. She wore nothing. absolutely nothing, underneath."
Later Adlai Stevenson charac-
terized Monroe that evening as "dressed in what she calls 'skin and beads." He added, "I didn't see the beads!" Arthur Schlesing- er Jr. wrote in his journal: "I do not think I have seen anyone so beautiful." Less than three months later, Monroe was dead. Meanwhile, Krim, cochairman of the rally, recalls that the Presi- dent was "in great form." JFK left around three a.m. Monroe, Schle- singer and Bobby Kennedy stayed on until nearly dawn..

MELANGE DE POLITIQUE ET D'ÉBLOUISSEMENT
Pour beaucoup de participants à la soirée, le souvenir le plus marquant reste celui de Marilyn Monroe. Cela tient peut-être à sa tenue – ou plutôt à son absence de tenue. Le costumier hollywoodien Jean-Louis, créateur de sa robe à 5 000 dollars, a déclaré qu'elle était faite d'un tissu couleur chair très fin, brodé de strass pour qu'elle brille sous les projecteurs. Elle ne portait rien, absolument rien, en dessous.
Plus tard, Adlai Stevenson a décrit Monroe ce soir-là comme « vêtue de ce qu'elle appelle "peau et perles" ». Il a ajouté : « Je n'ai pas vu les perles !» Arthur Schlesinger Jr. a écrit dans son journal : « Je crois n'avoir jamais vu une personne aussi belle.» Moins de trois mois plus tard, Monroe s'éteignait. Pendant ce temps, Krim, coprésident du rassemblement, se souvient que le président était « en pleine forme ». JFK est parti vers trois heures du matin. Monroe, Schlesinger et Bobby Kennedy sont restés jusqu'à l'aube.

Unveiling of the New Monroe
'BUS STOP' BRINGS BACK MORE ADROIT ACTRESS 
.
Bus Stop is Marilyn Monroe's firt movie since her year-long strike for artistic freedom - a year she spent sriously studying acting, reading good books, talking about playing in 'The Borothers Karamazov' and getting to know her Pulitzer prize-winning playwright. But as soon as shet steps through the beaded curtain of a Phoenix honky-tonk in 20th Cnetury-Fox's 'Bus Stop' it becomes evident that all this intellectual activity has done Marilyn absolutely as harm whatsoever.
She dances in daring costumes, wiggles in and out of tight dresses, lolls lusciously and uses a baby voice to set off and unbabylike figure. Under direction of Joshua Logan, whose sly ways with a camera get a lot of bawdy, brawling fun out of the movie, she shows that she has learned a great deal about her trade, developping a sure satiric touch as a comedienne. Maybe she isn't ready for 'The Brothers of Karamazov'? It doesn't seem very important.

Arrêt d'autobus est le premier film de Marilyn Monroe depuis sa grève d'un an pour la liberté artistique – une année qu'elle a passée à étudier sérieusement le théâtre, à lire de bons livres, à parler de son désir de jouer dans « Les Frères Karamazov » et à faire la connaissance de son dramaturge, lauréat du prix Pulitzer. Mais dès qu'elle franchit le rideau de perles d'un bar country de Phoenix dans « Bus Stop » de la 20th Century-Fox, il devient évident que toute cette activité intellectuelle ne lui a absolument pas fait de mal.
Elle danse dans des costumes audacieux, se déhanche dans des robes moulantes, se prélasse voluptueusement et utilise une voix enfantine pour mettre en valeur une silhouette qui n'a rien d'enfantin. Sous la direction de Joshua Logan, dont la réalisation astucieuse insuffle au film une bonne dose d'humour grivoise et de bagarres, elle démontre une grande maîtrise de son art et un sens inné de la satire, faisant d'elle une comédienne accomplie. Peut-être n'est-elle pas encore prête pour « Les Frères Karamazov » ? Peu importe.

Légende photos (pp. 80-82) :
- EN COSTUME DE GUENILLE, Marilyn, dans le rôle de Cherie, danse dans une boîte de nuit en fourrure, payant son billet de bus pour Hollywood. Un cow-boy, à sa grande honte, tombe éperdument amoureux d'elle.
- FUYANT UN RODÉO, poursuivie par un cow-boy exigeant qui veut l'emmener dans son ranch, Marilyn perd une chaussure. Une amie, Vera (Eileen Heckart), la tire avec elle.
- UNE FUITE DANS LA NUIT survient lorsque Vera aide Cherie à sortir par la fenêtre de la loge alors qu'un prétendant frappe à sa porte. Elle veut aller à Hollywood, pas dans un ranch.
- UN AMOUR ACCLAMÉ est crié par le cow-boy (Don Murray) lorsque, après avoir appris à la demander poliment en mariage, elle accepte enfin de partir pour le Montana.
