1948 Large studio photograph from the Columbia Pictures release of "Ladies of the Chorus" and starring a really young actress named Marilyn Monroe, sporting long hair and appearing in one of her earliest images ever. Stamped on the back by the theatre that was showing the film in 1948, this is one of the first from this film showing Marilyn that we have ever seen! The image shows Monroe at center in a sexy black dress along with the other stars of the show, whoa all shared equal billing at this stage in her career. The photo has some pinholes from editorial use but it looks nice overall.
