Dear Helaine and Joe: My aunt worked for Coach Bobby Dodd of the Georgia Tech “Yellow Jackets”. Marilyn Monroe came to the university during his tenure and gave him an autographed picture of her wearing a Georgia Tech sweater. The signature reads “Best Wishes to Coach Dodd” and is signed “Marilyn Monroe.” Dodd gave the photo to my aunt. What is it worth? Thank you. — V.C., Augusta, Ga.
Dear V.C.: When presented with a signed Marilyn Monroe photograph, there is always a question about whether she herself signed it. In most instances, genuine signatures were signed in red — but there are exceptions, and we believe this is one of those.
