This signed photograph of Marilyn Monroe was sold in 1985 as an authentic autographed photo and was later framed along with 2 other photos. We do have a copy of the original sales docket.
However, based on research we’ve done, this is actually a “secretarial signed” photograph done in the early 1950s (probably 1950-1952).
Secretarial signatures are signatures signed onto photographs by office staff working on behalf of Monroe and her employers. such as at 20th Century Fox Studios and Marilyn Monroe Productions, her own company she set up in 1956. The amount of fan mail to 20th Century Fox is what alerted Darryl Zanuck, the head of Fox, to her star power, and he was very slow on the uptake and to start putting her into more movies and better roles. She herself said “no studio made me a star, but the people”.
We are a second-hand dealer so most of our items are pre-loved and as such have signs of wear and use. We strive to refurbish items where possible, and only sell jewellery that is in good condition. If an item has major damage or wear we will note it in the description. We always recommend checking through the photos carefully as they form part of the description.
