The World’s Largest Privately Held Collection of Marilyn Monroe’s Personal Property

The Marilyn Monroe Collection comprises a lifetime of memories, both Marilyn’s and the collector’s. The collection includes her clothing, furs, and accessories from her personal wardrobe, cosmetics, books from her personal library, numerous personal and professional documents, bank statements, financial documents, signed bank checks, and many other items directly from her estate.  Pieces in the collection represent significant aspects of Marilyn’s life, including items from her childhood, the very first fur she ever owned, a maternity dress from her final pregnancy in 1958, and the blouse she was wearing in the last photographs ever taken of the screen legend.  The collection includes items worn by Marilyn in her films, her personal film scripts, and also many original photographs of Marilyn.  As a whole, the collection outlines in great detail the personal and very private life of one of the world’s most famous and iconic film stars.
