Vintage 1953 Marilyn Monroe Westmores of Hollywood Tru-Glo Ad
Value & Price Guide

Found this cool vintage magazine ad featuring Marilyn Monroe for Westmores of Hollywood Tru-Glo make-up. It's a real piece of history from around 1953 when she was starring in the movie Niagara. The colors are still pretty decent for its age and it has that classic mid-century look. Perfect for framing if you're into old Hollywood glam or just a Marilyn fan. Has some minor wear around the edges but nothing too crazy for paper this old.
