a lot to decide on Sept. 8, and the subsequent events.

Will have no investment in the arts in any event.

I imagine that's got such a replicable (200 pieces) fine art print.
Let delight for some time.
And then you can sell it.

I think the most popular Monroe at auction - pictures from the photo shoot for the magazine Playboy. Hollywood photographer Tom Kelly became famous by these images.
A photo of Marilyn Monroe on a red background for auction 38 times (!)

In 1953, the first issue of Playboy magazine with a photo of Marilyn Monroe on the cover. The magazine published pictures of her in the nude , made ​​by American photographer Tom Kelly (Tom Kelley, 1914-1984). Tom Kelly was engaged in commercial and advertising photography , celebrities photographed in the 1940s -50s . Photo of Marilyn Monroe became the most famous of his works . In 2008, in New York at auction Christie's for this shot paid 15 thousand dollars.

And that Cartier-Bresson pictures 1960 (1) and 1961 (2).

Well, now that theme continues 'll put in my two cents :

I wondered how my advice about the investment attractiveness of rare images from Marilyn can be confirmed by historical examples . Searching for information has led to a number of findings and conclusions :
- Bidding photographs of Marilyn are held regularly and 95 %very well, and the remaining 5 %are successful .
That is, there is a market for these pictures , they are constantly in circulation and it is very good . This means that there are a large number of buyers and you can be sure of a good photo of liquidity , and hence the reliability of their investments.
As an example, I want to show some very interesting pictures:
1. First photographing Marilyn , she's 19 years old .
All four photos plus a receipt for the transfer of copyright was sold in 2011 for $ 352 million , while the estimate 2 - 4,000 per lot.
Funny, but if you do not know what it's Marilyn , for what would have guessed
2 . Chest X-ray of Marilyn , which was made in 1954. The original price of $ 12,000 and sold for $ 45,000 in 2010.

For those who are interested in the topic as specially put up for auction next series of regular rare photos :
Portfolio of 10 rare photos of Marilyn Monroe will be sold by auction on September 10. Freeman's Auction House in Philadelphia assesses a limited series of pictures taken from the original negatives fashion photographer Bert Stern in June 1962 at a meeting of Vogue, from $ 10,000 to $ 15,000.
Frames auctioned were created when Stern and Monroe waited arrival of Vogue. Six weeks after the photo shoot of Marilyn , August 5 , the 36- year-old actress died from a drug overdose .

Well, to make a prediction ?
I think 150 - $ 200 that is not the limit.

Well:
Yesterday took place bid in the auction house Freeman's, exhibited photos of Marilyn Monroe.

" Ten shots of Marilyn Monroe's legendary series of photographs taken during the six weeks prior to her death "

Estimate was 10 - 15 $ and so I made a bold prediction that I would not be surprised if the amount will reach $ 200 m
Eh ... this megalomania will not lead to any good , because he knew the statistics, an average price for the lots with Marilyn rise from 4 to 7 times and following the logic of this item should have cost 40 - $ 70 tons .
So in fact there , overestimating the meaning of the phrase " .. photo shoot done for six weeks before his death " could not resist and blurted 150 - $ 200 t .
And in fact, everything remains in aggregate statistics - Lot of 10 pictures sold for $ 41,250 , exceeded the standard start - minimum four times.
Statistics is a great thing , if true , and use it wisely.
