    Description

    This is a beautiful early-fifties black silk handbag with tiny rhinestones accross the top that was owned and Worn by Actress Marilyn Monroe. The bag is in beautiful condition and has no smell or damage. There are no maker names anywhere on it.
    Sydney Guilaroff designed hair for the movies and became best friends with huge stars from Geta Garb to MM. Winner will receive a Personal letter on Sydney Guilaroff's letterhead paper stating how he knew Marilyn and came to own this Bag. It has been signed, stamped and Notarized dated in 1994.
    My late son met and bought a number of items personally from Mr. Guilaroff's collection in the late 1980's and early 1990's before his death. I am selling all of my late son's collection to pay for his end of life/estate expenses. I am 93 years old and really don't know very much about this industry, other than what I have written here. I am not looking to get rich from his items just recoup his original investment.
