One of the most famous scenes in the history of film is that of Marilyn Monroe as she enjoys the cool breeze coming from an air vent on a hot summer day as it sends her dress flying in the air. It sent fans and critics crazy (for different reasons) and it has been seen a million times and imitated a million more. The offered studio photograph for the film "The Seven Year Itch" captures this iconic moment as Marilyn laughs and holds her dress down. The photo is a perfect example with all the appropriate markings on the front, issued in 1963 just eight years after the original release! The condition is fantastic.
