The cast explains the tan line in this photo.

I took this at the Banff Springs Hotel on vacation a couple of summers ago. Can't remember where the pool was, but this looks like very close to where the pic of Marilyn was taken.

What mountains?

no matter what she wore.

How about a "View life size" button?

I'll be darned. Thank you for the clarification, Ice gang. All these years, I thought that that was Mt. Rundle. So did my parents. We're not from the Banff area, but we did the drive from the prairies a few times. I attach a photo of Cascade Mtn. (top) and the real Mt. Rundle (bottom). It's that bite mark that led to my error.

davidk: you are looking at Cascade Mountain, Mount Rundle is to the right, the round Mountain to the right is Tunnel Mountain, Mt Rundle is to the right of it. Many thanks to google maps.

Let daddy kiss and make it better. Yowza.

Thank you, Dave for this and future photos of Marilyn. She was the icon of my childhood (I was born in '47).

I sprained my neck watching "River of No Return."

Joe Dimaggio was retired from baseball and stayed with Marilyn at this hotel during the filming in this location.

I find the wit on Shorpy just as priceless as the photos.

Great shot of MM probably made with a twin-lens Rolleiflex which resulted in the low perspective and a square negative. Photographer then had the option to crop for a vertical or horizontal 8 X 10 print.

In the background, with the distinctive bite taken out of the top.

Even with a sprained ankle, forever a 'knockout'.

I got it! I got it! and note a sprained ankle and one high heeled shoe, not a great combination.
