You can buy just about anything on eBay, from cars to computers and everything in between. One of the iconic actresses of old Hollywood was Marilyn Monroe, who died infamously at an early age. Musician Buddy Greco has his memorabilia collection up for auction on eBay and among the offerings are the last six photos of Monroe ever taken before she died.
There were originally 36 photos on the roll of Monroe, Greco and other friends taken at the Cal Neva Lodge only five days before Monroe died. Only six of the photos remain. One person in the shots up for auction is hair stylist to the stars Jay Sebring. Sebring was later murdered by the Manson Family along with Sharon Tate in 1969.
The other 30 photos from the roll were stored in an office inside the World Trade Center on 9/11 and were destroyed when the twin towers collapsed after the terrorist attack. Right now, the starting bid for the six remaining photos is set at $7500, but so far, no one has bid. The auction has almost 9 days left to run.
