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: Note that the item comes with a "certificate of authenticity" from Todd Mueller. Apparently, Mr. Mueller purchased a stocking from this movie (or he had a consignor who purchased it) from Christie's auction house, and they then took the stocking and cut it into many tiny pieces and taped each tiny piece to the front of an 8 1/2" x 11" printed sheet with an image of Marilyn on the side that they taped the stocking piece to, and a copy of the original invoice from Christie's on the other side, together with Todd Mueller's autograph guaranteeing this to be authentic.

Condition: very good.
