Elegant vintage glossy 3.5 x 5.5 British postcard photo of Marilyn holding a bouquet of roses as she appeared in the 1950 20th Century-Fox drama All About Eve, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To Len, Love & kisses, Marilyn Monroe." In very good to fine condition, with an old repair on the back of a short tear to the right edge. A gorgeous pose of Marilyn Monroe in one of her earliest dramatic roles; she won the part after a lobbying campaign by her agent, despite producer Daryl Zanuck's initial antipathy and belief that she was better suited to comedy. Encapsulated in a PSA/DNA authentication holder.
