August 1950: 24-year-old Marilyn, wearing a simple button-down shirt monogrammed with her initials, was photographed in Los Angeles' Griffith Park for Life photographer Ed Clark. The negatives for these photos were recently discovered during the mag's ongoing effort to digitize its photo archive, including outtakes and entire shoots that never saw the light of day. See the full set here.
Below is one of my all-time favorites.
