THIS IS AN ULTRA RARE MARILYN MONROE CONCERT HANDBILL / FLYER / TICKET ORDER FORM ADVERTISING MARILYN MONROE'S ONE AND ONLY CONCERT APPEARANCE EVER!

This is an original handbill / flyer / ticket order form (guaranteed printed before the show) from the infamous: NEW YORK'S BIRTHDAY SALUTE TO PRESIDENT KENNEDY - featuring MARILYN MONROE and featuring an amazing line-up of talent in addition to MARILYN MONROE's one and only concert performance! This was the infamous show where Marilyn wore that iconic skin-tight dress (that sold for $4.8 million dollars at auction recently!!!) where she sang the sexiest song - Happy Birthday, Mr. President - to President John F. Kennedy! It took place on May 19th, 1962 at Madison Square Garden in New York. Less than three months later Marilyn Monroe died on August 5, 1962.

The show featured (in addition to Marilyn Monroe and President Kennedy) Judy Garland (not listed on Handbill but did perform), Jack Benny, Maria Callas, Diahann Carroll, Bobby Darin, Jimmy Durante, Henry Fonda, Ella Fitzgerald, Danny Kaye, Peggy Lee, Mike Nichols and Elaine May, Jerome Robbins Ballet Troupe, and many others.

This thin paper original handbill measures 6 x 9 inches and is in VG++ condition with foxing and handling around the edge, slightly bumped corners and a few tiny nicks or tears on the right edge and one tiny nick on the top edge, as well.
