Description

Paying her phone bill in the year of The Misfits, her last completed film

Business check, 8.25 x 3, filled out in type and signed by Monroe, payable to New York Telephone Company for $149.47, May 8, 1961. The condition of Marilyn’s surviving checks is notoriously variable; the present example is a crisp, outstanding specimen with a bold, beautiful signature. In fine condition, with usual punch cancellations (well away from signature) and bank stamp to reverse very faintly showing through behind a few letters of first name. PSA/DNA LOA and R&R COA.
