Jasgur Photos Sold For $352,000

Photos of 19 year-old Norma Jeane Dougherty, taken by Joe Jasgur, have sold at Julien’s for $352,000, reports BBC News. Profits will be used to pay off debts incurred by Mr Jasgur’s estate. (One thing I found odd about this auction is that several of the photos attributed to Jasgur have been credited elsewhere to different photographers. But that was also an issue in Jasgur’s 1991 book, The Birth of Marilyn.)
