Take a look at an archive of negatives of Marilyn Monroe from the production of Niagara which pulled in over $61,000. Featuring over 200 negatives of the iconic Hollywood starlet, these early photos were captured by Canadian journalist Jock Carroll. The images display the production’s set and scenes of Monroe in costume and studying her script. 

These five oversized signed photos of the Wizard of Oz cast are another unique surviving set from Hollywood’s golden age. These portraits feature five key figures from the film including Judy Garland as Dorothy Gale, Ray Bolger as the Scarecrow, Jack Haley as the Tin Man, Bert Lahr as the Cowardly Lion, and Frank Morgan as the Wizard. These photos were autographed and inscribed to Barron Polan. Polan acted as assistant to Mervyn LeRoy who was a producer on the original 1939 film adaptation of the Wizard of Oz. Our writers at RR Auction pride themselves on bringing you the history behind these incredible pieces.
