Nearly 54 years after Marilyn Monroe tragically1 passed away, fans are still clamoring to own a piece of the screen icon2.
在荧幕偶像玛丽莲·梦露不幸去世近54年后，粉丝们仍然争相拥有她生前用过的物品。
In November, a collection of the star's personal items -- including handwritten notes, receipts, clothing, accessories, and
jewelry3 -- will go up for
auction4 at Julien's
Auctions5.
More than 500 lots of her
belongings6 will be at the auction, which will take place in Los Angeles, and in total they are expected to fetch between $2 million and $4 million.
The items up for grabs were left to her
acting7 mentor8, Lee Strasberg, whom himself died in 1982, 20 years after Marilyn.
Julien's Auctions said the items have never been on the auction block before, and are being offered for sale by the estate of Strasberg. The actor, director, and teacher also taught stars including James Dean, Al Pacino,
Jack9 Nicholson, and Jane Fonda.
Many of the items are preserved exactly as they were when Monroe died of a drug overdose in 1962, at the age of 36.
