This is a true gem of a collectible! ! This is an 8" by 10" composite photo of Marilyn Monroe and Margaret Kerry when they modeled in their bathing suits together at the Beverly Hills Hotel for a publicity print layout for a magazine. Margaret took the photo of Marilyn and Marilyn took the photo of Margaret. Margaret was just turning into her 20's then and Marilyn was not yet the super star. You can see the resemblance in their body shapes can't you?
You won't find these particular images of the pair elsewhere. They have been unpublished up to now and they are copyrighted! I constantly tease Margaret that Marilyn was a far better photographer than herself as you will see in the photo. You also get a bonus write-up by Margaret of the whole story behind the photo!
What makes this photo even more interesting is that there has been a myth that has existed since the l950's that Marilyn Monroe was the reference model for Disney's Tinker Bell. This photo and the information on it tells you the real truth. Margaret Kerry was the one and only original reference model/actor/dancer for Disney's tiny Tinker Bell.
I have framed the photo in a quality black, classic frame. The photo has acid free backing board behind it. It comes with a certficate of authenticity as well also signed by Margaret.
This is a great piece of memorabilia! It is fun to look at, and it is fun to read as well. Plus, the Tinker Bell myth has been now been disspelled. Enjoy!
