New Milton Greene book The Essential Marilyn Monroe

UPDATE:  Here is a video review.

WOW.  That is the only words I have so far for this book.  It arrived today and I am in awe of it's sheer size.  A better review will be coming but in the meantime I think it is safe to say that this is a MUST have book for the Marilyn fan.  Milton's photos are some of the best ever taken of Marilyn.

You can purchase this book from Amazon below.  It is a great price right now too.

New Milton Greene book on the way!

Finally what Marilyn fans have been dreaming of.....a large size book featuring the photos of Milton Greene.  Like many fans, Greene's photos are some of my absolute favourite and this book is to feature 400 photos and 50 sessions.  It will be a must-have for Marilyn collectors.  It is set to be released in September but you can pre-order right now through Amazon.  It retails for $65.

Pre-order now below and receive it as soon as it is released!

Happy Birthday JFK dress sells for 4.18 million dollars

The historic dress Marilyn wore when she sang Happy Birthday to John F Kennedy on May 19, 1962 was put on the auction block last night at Juliens.

It sold for a staggering price of 4.18 million dollars.  However, the big news is not the price but by who bought it.  Ripleys was announced as the winner immediately.  They went on to tell the press that they purchased numerous items in the auction related to the dress and they will be opening an exhibit at their museum in LA.  Ripleys has locations all of the world and the exhibit could travel to all of them.

This is the best possible outcome for Marilyn fans.  Instead of having the dress hidden away by a private collector for another 17 years - it will be shown to the public!

The Marilyn auction continues today and runs through Nov 19.
