628tigerlily Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Marilyn Monroe photos found at garage sale still a mysteryBy Alan Duke, CNNLos Angeles (CNN) -- Photographer Anton Fury's hobby of searching weekend garage sales for collectible toys led him to dozens of apparently unpublished photos of a young Marilyn Monroe.Fury has allowed CNN to publish the images just days before what would have been Monroe's 85th birthday. They apparently were taken during a photo session before she was well known."I found an envelope of negatives, didn't know what they were, but I realized they were old," Fury said. He paid $2 for the folder, which contained two envelopes of black-and-white negatives.That was in Parsippany, New Jersey, in 1980, when Fury says he was "a fledgling photographer.""I took it home, put them on the lightboard with a loupe and, needless to say, these are Marilyn," he said. "That was probably my greatest garage sale discovery ever."The second envelope was filled with about 70 negatives of actress Jayne Mansfield.Fury held onto the photographs for the last three decades, not knowing much about them."The only thing we're sure of is who," he said. "We don't know where, we don't know why, we don't know when, we don't know who shot them. But we do know it is Marilyn."Fury flew to Los Angeles this week to show the images to David W. Streets, a Beverly Hills art dealer and appraiser experienced with Monroe photos.Monroe was one of the most photographed women ever, but Streets suspects these photos are from her early years, soon after she cut her hair and evolved into the iconic look most people associate with her."I've looked for early photographs, early test shots, magazine shots, books, and haven't been able to find anything yet, so the mystery we're just beginning to unravel," Streets said.Streets' best guess for now is the photos were taken in 1950, a breakout year for the nearly unknown Monroe because of her minor roles in "The Asphalt Jungle" and "All About Eve.""I know they were taken here in Los Angeles," which we know "from the backgrounds that we see in the photos," Streets said. "You see Hollywood Hills, Hollywood 1950s architecture."There are more questions than answers, though."For me as an appraiser and as a researcher, I want people to call, I want people to e-mail and say, 'This is where it is, this is what it is, this is who I think took it,' " Streets said.One clue that could be important is the coincidence of a man seen in both the Monroe and Mansfield photographs. It is possible he was the photographer for both sessions, Streets said."We know that Monroe and Mansfield were here working at the same time, were contemporaries and friends," Streets said. "So, there's an intertanglement there that we're going to unravel and see where the mystery leads."Monroe, who would have been 24 in 1950, wore two bathing suits, including a bikini, and short pants during the poolside photo shoot.One risk Fury runs as he brings his garage sale find to the public, and possibly for sale, is that someone could make a legal claim to the photos, which are possibly still protected by copyright laws even after 60 years."That's kind of what we're trying to figure out," Fury said. There's way more questions than there are answers at this point. We don't know where this is going to lead."http://edition.cnn.com/2011/SHOWBIZ/celebr...mystery/?hpt=C2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusja73 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 She all life ran... From itself, from the terrible and terrible, almost raped memory of the childhood... She ran both from herself, and from all... And still she ran to.... Ran to that, to the only thing who will warm, and will protect, who can understand - as to it terribly and alone.... And all it - always on the run, choking, being afraid to stop - differently it will be even more terrible... That can be more terrible - if you aren't necessary in the childhood of abnormal mother if there was nothing... Neither houses, nor families... As it would be desirable and it was dreamed small Marylin, that is then still to Norm.... It had many foster homes, there were shelters, where always almost - humiliations and terrible loneliness.... It didn't have anything - only here this run on a circle - from itself, from all... To that only thing - who will understand and will protect.... And these unique - saw fine, were got, slobbered... Built plots and intrigues, built mousetraps and traps... She was afraid to stop not to go mad, as mother that has thrown it.... She wanted the family, wanted children, but the destiny and here has plundered, has deceived her... She about all around understood all and from it to it it was even more terrible.... She searched for exits - such what would be searched by the child - being mistaken and getting to ridiculous situations, being mistaken and being mistaken, again and again, again and again being caught in a net.... The glory, adoration has come and came, it so loved, as well as hated... About it dismissed such dirty hearings and gossips that sometimes, half-drunk, it was ready also itself in them to believe... Run on a circle.... It is very dangerous - if isn't present a number of the true friend, the person, the man... And they were, offered a hand, heart, a condition, the help... And then, having understood that can't correspond, understanding that it not a doll, and the scared child.... Thrown by all.... And were frightened - what really to do by what there is it? The sexiest and attractive blonde, star - with the heart broken to death... And they - or left - differently, seldom silently, it is more in a scandalous way, or.... Or here have dared and have killed her.... Simply having been frightened that this driven into a corner, frightened, unfortunate... Begins to speak... That she simply will start talking, she was tired, she will tell to the whole world - about those who has betrayed, betrayed it who used its broken heart.... Used to it, as a doll... Her have killed... One dark night... Both beat, and have killed.... Also there was no place it to run already.... Late also there is no place.... Have tired out and have killed.... It wasn't happiness and a shelter here... Can there where it now - all it is at it... Light memory to a silver cloudlet by name of Marylin of Monroe.... Light to you memory Norm Gin....
