MONROE, Marilyn; HALSMAN, Philippe (illustrator). HALSMAN, Philippe. Halsman/Marilyn. New York: Neikrug Press, 1981. Full Description: [MONROE, Marilyn]. [HALSMAN, Philippe, photographer]. Halsman/Marilyn. New York: Neikrug Press, 1981. Limited edition, number 136 of 250 copies. Signed by Yvonne Halsman who supervised the production of this edition. Six (of the ten) silver gelatin prints of Marilyn Monroe, professionally matted as issued. Prints are 11 x 14 inches. Each print housed in a 16 x 20 inch mat. Each print with Halsman/Marilyn copyright stamp with edition limitation on verso. All prints housed in the original grey linen clamshell with printed paper label. A bit of minor soiling to clamshell. Internally fine. All photographs in this present portfolio were shot during Halsman's famous 1952 photo shoot with Marilyn Monroe for LIFE magazine. Her first cover shot for LIFE magazine which appeared on the 7 April 1952 issue, is not present here. This present portfolio includes the photos: Portrait of Marilyn, 1952; Marilyn Jumping, 1959; Marilyn Entering the Closet, 1952; Marilyn Flirting, 1952; Marilyn Listening to Music, 1952; Marilyn-Mao, 1952. "Philippe Halsman was at one point considered the best photo-portraitist in France. He had an incessant interest in faces: "Every face I see seems to hide-and sometimes fleetingly reveal-the mystery of another human being." Halsman's photographs of politicians, celebrities, and intellectuals were featured widely in magazines like LIFE and Vogue. His more famous subjects included the likes of Marc Chagall, Le Corbusier, Audrey Hepburn, and Albert Einstein. He also had a 37-year collaboration with Salvador Dalí, which resulted in several famous surrealist series including the "Dalí's Mustache" portraits." (Artsy). HBS 69574. $2,500. Signed.

First edition in book form of the famed actress's ghostwritten piece for Pageant magazine, often considered the closest thing to an autobiographical work published during her lifetime. Octavo, original cloth, illustrated with 43 photographs. Signed by Marilyn Monroe on the front free endpaper. Although Monroe was an avid readerâ"as demonstrated by the celebrated 1999 Christieâs sale of her personal libraryâ"books bearing her signature are exceptionally rare. The present volume is the only work published during her lifetime that was directly derived from her own words, as recorded in contemporaneous interviews. Her only formal autobiography, My Story, was issued posthumously in 1974. From the library of critic, photographer, and artist Paul McMahon, who served as a stage manager for Marlene Dietrich for more than thirteen years. McMahon obtained Monroeâs signature in person at a 1957 theatrical performance in New York City, having learned in advance that she would be in attendance with her then-husband, Arthur Miller. Monroe was not known to sign books and did so only rarely; on this occasion, however, she appears to have been taken by surprise by McMahonâs request and nevertheless obliged, reportedly despite Millerâs evident irritation. Very good in a very good dust jacket. Jacket photograph of Marilyn Monroe by Topix. Jacket design by Sydney Butchkes. Housed in a custom clamshell box. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from JSA. Exceptionally rare, no signed copy of any comparable biographical work has appeared at auction in the past half century. Authored by Pete Martin (1901â"1980), a longtime Hollywood reporter and noted ghostwriter of celebrity narratives, Will Acting Spoil Marilyn Monroe? is presented in the form of a semi-fictionalized dialogue in which a group of interlocutors, including Monroe herself, alternately reflect upon her life and career. The text is based on a series of extensive interviews conducted by Martin with Monroe between 1955 and 1956, during the period in which she was studying method acting under Lee Strasberg. The resulting work conveys a notable degree of intimacy between writer and subject and captures Monroeâs reflections on fame, vulnerability, artistic ambition, and her persistent desire to be regarded as a serious actress. It is within this text that several of her most frequently cited remarks first appeared, including âI think people need human warmth even when they're asleep and unconscious,â âThose who know me better know better,â and, in reference to her nude calendar, âI'm saving a copy of it for my grandchildren.â Although Martin undoubtedly shaped the material into a coherent narrative, the voice that emerges remains recognizably Monroeâs own.

(From the Colophon) "Bert Stern was an American photographer best known for his iconic portraits of Marilyn Monroe. With a photo shoot that took place in 1962 just weeks before the actress' death, Stern later compiled his image into the photobook Marilyn Monroe: The Complete Last Sitting, first published in 1982. Born on October 3, 1929 in Brooklyn, NY, Stern taught himself how to take photographs as a youth. Over the course of his career, Stern changed the landscape of fashion and advertising photography by creating dynamic, stand-alone images that no longer existed simply to serve the text. He emerged alongside Richard Avedon, Mark Shaw, and Irving Penn as a pioneer of this new, confrontational style. Stern died at the age of 83 on June 26, 2013 in New York, NY. Notable exhibitions of his work include "I Wanna Be Loved By You: Photographs of Marilyn Monroe" shown at the Brooklyn Museum of Art and "The Last Sitting" at the Musée Maillol in Paris."
