Description

A Marilyn Monroe Pair of Rare Black and White Photographs by Jean Howard, 1953. Both original prints, one with a glossy finish, one with a semi-gloss finish, both depicting MM with her co-stars [Betty Grable, Lauren Bacall, and extras] from the 1953 20th Century Fox film, "How To Marry A Millionaire," both stamped twice on the verso "Photograph by / Jean Howard," one further stamped "Copyright / Jean Howard" -- Howard being the 1930s-era actress turned photographer who was married to the Hollywood power player Charles K. Feldman who was MM's agent for a number of years; Howard had access to the set of this now-classic film for a few days where she shot a number of still photographs in-between and during filming; directly from Howard's own files as consigned to this auction by her grand-niece. (Please note both show slight creases and dents in raking light; the horizontal image has further wrinkling on the upper right margin.)
