Monroe chest X-rays fetch $45,000

The apparently endless market for images of Marilyn Monroe now extends to inside the bombshell's body. A set of three Monroe chest X-rays from a 1954 hospital visit sold June 27 for $45,000 (¥4 million) at the Hollywood Legends auction at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. Julien's Auctions, which sold the Monroe X-rays, had estimated before the sale that they would only fetch a total of around $3,000 (¥260,000). Other Monroe-abilia that sold included a chair from her last photo shoot that went for $35,000 (¥3 million). (AP)
