This black Ford Thunderbird is the only car owned by America’s greatest female icon ever to be located, documented, and brought to auction. It was purchased brand new on December 20, 1955, a few months before Marilyn Monroe married playwright Arthur Miller. It was registered to “Marilyn Monroe Productions Inc.”, the star’s own production company, which she co-founded with photographer Milton Greene in 1955. The Ford Thunderbird was first marketed by Ford Motor Company in late 1954 as a 1955 model.
