Pictures of Marilyn on the set of ‘Sitting Pretty’

Marilyn Monroe photographed by Loomis Dean I found some new pictures of Marilyn. In this shoot she’s visiting the movie set of Sitting Pretty in January 1948. I’ve added the pictures to the gallery.

The pictures are taken by Life photographer Loomis Dean. What Marilyn was doing at the set, is still unknown since she wasn’t in the cast. The darkhaired girl is actress Laurette Luez. She wasn’t in the cast either. The two girls seem to be eating chocolates with actor Clifton Webb.
