Of the 275 items that once belonged to Marilyn Monroe are an orange Pucci blouse and a white fox fur stole Monroe wore on many occasions, including to the premiere of "The Seven Year Itch" with Joe Dimaggio. Also up for sale is the script from iconic actress' famous film "Some Like It Hot".
Marilyn Monroe said, "We have this image of Marilyn frozen in our minds of this vibrant, sexy, blonde, successful career woman and that's what we have in our memory, and even if you ask a ten year old boy or girl today 'Who is Marilyn Monroe?', they will know very well who she is. She also holds her value so people buying this property are buying something they can love and have and touch and appreciate, but also it will increase in value."
