Marilyn Monroe’s former grave marker from Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles, California. Made by the Gasser-Olds bronze casting company, this marker was removed in the 1970s and replaced with a new grave marker. The marker reads simply “MARILYN MONROE/ 1926 – 1962.” Monroe’s grave site became a destination for Monroe’s fans and the constant touching of the marker led to wear and damage. When the marker was replaced the old marker was returned to Gasser-Olds and was given to an employee of the company. 4 1/2 by 15 inches Categories: Marilyn Monroe
