New Marilyn pix found

I figured since it would be her birthday today, I post this about Marilyn. I heard the story a few days ago, can't wait to see how it all turns out.

 

"Talk about a garage sale find - a New Jersey man recently rediscovered an envelope of negatives he bought for $2 in the 1980s, which turned out to be rare pictures of Hollywood icons Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield. Anton Fury didn't do anything with them at the time, according to reports, but he found the negatives again earlier this year after a flood at his studio forced him to clean out his belongings. Fury, a photographer, told the New York Daily News that 33 of the images are of Monroe, and another 71 are of Mansfield. He took the images to David Streets, a Beverly Hills art dealer and appraiser, who thinks the Monroe images were taken around 1950. "This is before she became the iconic Marilyn Monroe," Streets noted. Monroe would have been 24 in 1950, a big year for the then-still-unknown actress due to her roles in "The Asphalt Jungle" and "All About Eve." According to CNN, she wore two bathing suits (one of them a bikini) and short pants for the poolside shoot. The mystery surrounding the photos - including who took them - is what Streets said drew him in. "The fun part about it is we're all kind of sharing in the beginning stages," Streets told the Daily News. "The adventure is going to be finding out where, who, what, why and when."
Fury reportedly plans to sell the photos at auction."
