Photos from Ben Stern’s 1962 collection of Marilyn Monroe were auctioned off at Christie’s auction house on Tuesday.
The photos were taken for Vogue magazine. The actress died later that year due to a supposed drug overdose.
The collection of 36 photos were sold for $146,500. Pre-sale estimates were predicted to be anywhere from $100,000 to $150,000.
It was the last professional photo shoot the actress would do before her death. The pictures ran in Vogue later that year as a memorial.
More photos of the blonde bombshell being auctioned off Wednesday.
