Marilyn's X-Ray to be auctioned

An X-Ray of Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe is set to go under the hammer at an upcoming auction. The X-Ray of the star's chest was taken at a Florida hospital in 1954 when she was being treated for womb condition endometriosis. (AP/Matty Zimmerman)
The X-Ray which shows the star's ribs as well as the outline of her famed cleavage, was printed with her married name DiMaggio at the time she was going through a divorce from baseball legend Joe DiMaggio. (AP)
