  • Marilyn Monroe image needed?

    Posted by Harry Cleary on 9 August 2006 at 10:42

    Hi all,
    This is a bit of a long shot, but would anyone have a good quality (printable) picture (or know where to buy it) of Marilyn Monroe standing over a street vent with her dress blowing up around her. I cant find it anywhere.
    Thanks

    Definately a copyright issue there Harry.

    You may find a vector of a likenenss. Would that be suitable?

    Harry, any Monroe (read:celebrity) picture will be licensed. I’m still looking for you tho, may be expensive tho. (there is nothing on the telly tonight anyway 🙁 )

    Got a good look -a -like Shane, thanks. Not the same as the real thing though. Looking through all the images of her, you got to admit Marilyn had a ‘special’ something. No-one like her since. Thanks for all your help, Peter and Shane.
    Marek, do you still want pics of my missus? $1020 and you can use them for a month, how’s that? 😀 😀 😀
