Auction History Result 1m457 NIGHT & DAY magazine Nov 1950 Marilyn Monroe at the dawn of her Fox stardom by De Dienes! Date Sold 10/22/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Magazine (measures 10 1/2" x 13 1/2" [27 x 34 cm]) (Learn More) Night and Day ("America's Picture Magazine of Entertainment"), the 1940s to 1960s (at least) "men's" magazine with lots of nude and semi-nude sexy women. At some point in the 1950s, after Playboy magazine came out, they tried to emulate Playboy and also include straight news stories (likely so that men could justify buying it to their wives!), but apparently, that fooled nobody and did not increase sales, so they dropped it and went back to what they knew, and as standards relaxed, their pictures and stories got racier and racier, and they added a "SALE TO MINORS FORBIDDEN" to the cover! If anyone knows more about this magazine, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that in 1950, Marilyn Monroe only rated half a cover of this magazine! They described her as "Marilyn Monroe, at the dawn of a 20th Century-Fox stardom for her performance in The Asphalt Jungle, has that refreshing charm, symbolizing our DAY cover. Born 23 years ago in Los Angeles, she isn't wed yet, but hopes to be." Note that we have provided a picture of the front cover of the magazine, and pictures of interior two-page spreads (including the table of contents page if there is one; but we didn't make much effort to find the best ones!).
