Lot 119: MARILYN MONROE SUIT FROM "LOVE NEST" 20th Century Fox, 1951

 A two-piece suit made of light-brown wool worn by a twenty-four year-old Marilyn Monroe as she portrayed sexy ex-WAC Roberta Stevens. Consisting of a fitted blazer with a flared waist and three-quater length sleeves, a matching skirt with six buttons sewn down the front and a self-belt (now in fragile condition), Marilyn wears this suit when she goes downstairs to have champagne with her neighbors played by June Haver, William Lundigan and Jack Paar. Unfortunately, the original white lapels have been changed to an amber-colored velvet for another actress' use and the white ties around the cuffs have been removed, but the outfit is still recognizible as being the one MM wore in this early comedy. Additionally, the skirt has a handwritten cloth label in the interior lining reading 1-69-1-1134 M. Monroe A-635-04 and the jacket has a paper studio drycleaning tag reading Fox 59027 SP. (2)
Estimate: USD 16,000 – USD 18,000  / Price realised: USD 19,975
.

Lot 120:  MARILYN MONROE PERSONALLY WORN DRESS

 A dress worn by Marilyn Monroe in both her private and public life. Made of ivory-colored silk and simple in design with short sleeves and a slightly gathered scoop-neckline, this piece has an interior label reading Designed by Jax, one of Marilyn's favorite brands. Three black and white images of MM wearing this dress on two different occasions are included and illustrate how a plain frock on someone like Marilyn Monroe becomes a spectacular ensemble!
Provenance: This piece was originally sold at "The Personal Property of Marilyn Monroe" auction Christie's had in October 1999; Lot 132, Page 105 of that catalogue, though it was not pictured as it was part of a group of clothing.
Estimate: USD 14,000 – USD 16,000 / Price realised: USD 14,100

JOCK CARROLL (1919-1995) Jock Carroll was a Canadian writer and photographer who worked for Weekend Magazine, a popular Sunday newspaper supplement in Canada. It was on assignment for this publication in 1952 that he met Marilyn Monroe while she was filming her twenty-first film, "Niagara." Carroll became so smitten with the star that he shot dozens of photographs of her, but only a few were published at the time. The rest remained unseen for over forty years until Carroll's family published a book titled 'The Niagara Photographs Jock Carroll' in 1996. Christie's is proud to offer the following eleven lots of original negatives, plus all their associated copyrights, from Jock Carroll's now-celebrated "Niagara" photographs, many of which have never before been published. Additionally, each lot includes recently printed photographs from the negatives for visual purposes. Buyers should note that the publishers of the above mentioned book, 'The Niagara Photographs Jock Carroll' (Stoddart/Friedman, 1996), retain the rights to republish the book including future editions. Buyers should also note that certain uses of these photographs may require permission from the Estate of Marilyn Monroe which holds the rights to her name and likeness.
