BEING MARILYN MONROE (8): Marilyn's Home, by Alan Ewing








MARILYN'S HOME 
12305 Fifth Helena Drive
[by Alan Ewing]
 
 



The best hope for this monument, for such it is, is for The Marilyn World to buy it. Restore it to its original form and open it up for her fans. It could be asked why her Estate has not done this: I know from trying to strike deals with it, that it is a venture capitalist organisation; they expect you to put up money, while they simply take. We have a great situation in Liverpool now with The Beatles homes, courtesy of our National Trust, open and available for the Beatlemaniacs (like me!) Obviously, given the ethos of America then only private investment can bring The Lady's Palace to us. Getting her belongings back may be difficult ...you know how it goes from The New Testament ...They draw lots and behave like vultures ... money-makers, exploiting her death (even her ash trays for heaven's sake), while in her final days her bank accounts were in debit.

Currently up for review for demolition in 2023 ... surely this cannot be allowed to happen ...
