Rare Marilyn Monroe Pics Before Her Death For Sale

The last ever photos of screen icon Marilyn Monroe are expected to fetch thousands of dollars in an online auction.

Four ultra-rare pictures of the Some Like It Hot star at the Cal Neva resort in Nevada just five days before her death have been released by legendary pianist Buddy Greco.

They were part of a set of 36 photos taken of Monroe and Frank Sinatra during the summer of 1962 - but only six remain.

The other 30 were stored in a safe-deposit box at the World Trade Center and were destroyed in the 9/11 attacks.

Greco has put the prints - four of Monroe and two of Sinatra - up for auction, with a starting bid of $7,500 (£5,000).

Monroe died from an overdose of barbiturates on 05 August 1962. (WENN/ZN/WN&PYN/MJ)
