An Original Vintage Bathroom Tile (measures 2 3/4" x 5 1/2" [7 x 14 cm]) (Learn More) Marilyn Monroe is one of the greatest larger-than-life movie stars ever of the 1950s, and surely the greatest sex symbol of all time! She appeared in several memorable movies including: Some Like It Hot, The Prince & the Showgirl, All About Eve, The Asphalt Jungle, The Misfits, The Seven Year Itch, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Monkey Business, and Niagara. The last film that she worked on was Something's Got To Give in 1962. 20th Century Fox blamed Marilyn for the production being behind schedule, and fired her in June (the film was never completed). In August, she was found dead in her home from an apparent drug overdose, and her death was ruled a suicide (though there are theories that foul play was involved, and even in 2024, many people do not feel it was an "accidental" death). Important Added Info: Our consignor purchased this tile in 1994. The woman who had bought Marilyn Monroe's home in 1963 after her passing. The house had a tub with elaborate floral tiles, and there were extra tiles that Marilyn bought but were not used because they were surplus. The woman who owned the house sold the excess tiles in 1992. One of the people who purchased one resold it to our consignor in 1994. The winner of the auction gets the tile, plus a copy of the original 1992 letter from the woman who owned the house, and a letter from the man who sold it to our consignor in 1994, plus a picture of what the actual wall tile looked like in the home. Condition: very good. The tile was never used (see above). Learn More about condition grades
