Photographs of a young Marilyn Monroe taken by photographer and friend Andre De Dienes are set to fetch up to $9,000 at an up and coming auction in Los Angeles.
The nine photographs of Monroe, taken between 1945 and 1953 show the icon in various poses, from frolicking at the beach, wrapped up on a winters day and lounging around the Bel Air Hotel in Los Angeles.
The photos are currently owned by a private collector who is putting the set up for auction at Nate D Sanders auction house in Los Angeles.
