Help! Can anyone tell me the name of the chica in my AV?

[sunstruck]

I know she was Playboy's Playmate for December 1953 but I can't find her name and I KNOW I know it.

The av art was superimposed over the Playboy pic.

See?

You are kidding right?

 

[Bob_Bytchin]

This woman is THE woman who put Playboy on the map.

Marilyn Monroe.

 

[JerseyBoy]

umm, marilyn monroe? yup yup

 

[Saint Peter]

Maybe a Kennedy someplace might have an idea.

 

[bluemuse]

WAS she Marilyn Monroe at this point? Or was she still going by here real name?

 

[sunstruck]

That doesn't look like Monroe to me AT ALL. LOL But you're right. I finally found it on the web.

Oh well.

 

[perks]

no she was marilyn.

This picture was also used for the greatest Playboy cover of all time.

This is the best shot I could find:

It was a collage of all the Playboy covers up to then arranged to make a picture of Marilyn Monroe.

Out of curiosity because she looked so young...I checked. She was 28ish when this pic was taken.

 

[Mistress]

I think she was still Norma Jean then

 

[Bob Waters]

Yes, she was still Norma Jean when she posed for Playboy

 

[sunstruck]

She looks so thin. I didn't think Monroe was even that little.

 

[Linedrive]

On 23 July 1946 she signed a contract with 20th century fox studio's, and selected her mothers name of Monroe. From this point on she became known as Marilyn Monroe.

Not really this smart...just read her bio.
