Bank check, 8.25 x 3.25, filled out in another hand and signed by Monroe, “Marilyn Monroe,” adding her address, 1309 Harper Avenue in Los Angeles, where she lived for less than a year during 1950–51, as well as her phone number, payable to Cash for $125.00, November 24, 1950. In very good condition, with scattered creases, a few small edge tears, cancellation holes to top, and several bank stamps over beginning of signature. The year in which she wrote this check proved to be a turning point in Monroe’s fledgling career. After a handful of trivial parts in trivial films, she appeared in small but crucial roles in two of the most-watched films of 1950—roles that finally brought her to the forefront of the public’s imagination: Louis Calhern’s seductive “niece” in The Asphalt Jungle, and the scene-stealing party guest (and graduate of the “Copacabana School of Dramatic Art”) in All About Eve.
