TCM kicks off our 100th birthday celebration of the often imitated but never duplicated, actress Marilyn Monroe with programming every Monday evening in June. For more on Marilyn Monroe and our TCM Star of the Month programming, click here.   

On Thursday, June 4, TCM and Julien’s Auctions continue the celebration with “100 Years of Marilyn," an auction offering over 100 significant pieces of the Hollywood legend’s life, including: the front entry gates to her Brentwood estate; personal clothing and makeup products; hand annotated film scripts; rare, never-before-seen photographs; handwritten notes and correspondences, and many other desirable items from one of Hollywood's most quintessential stars.

We invite all Marilyn Monroe fans to participate in what promises to be a historic auction honoring this indelible world icon. To see all the items on offer and to register to bid, please click below. 

Happy 100th Birthday, Marilyn! 

FRONT GATES TO MONROE'S BRENTWOOD HOUSE

These wooden gates were the dreamy entryway to Monroe’s first and only home she purchased for herself, which provided her the calm retreat she sought. Like Elvis’ Graceland, items from Monroe’s home hold incredible historical significance, as the star’s hacienda-style house was named a Historic-Cultural Monument in 2024–making these gates a rare chance for collectors to own one of the most important and highly sought-after pieces of her life

Pieces from The Misfits, the final completed film for both Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable

PERSONAL POSSESSIONS
