Few posters of the early 1960s pair two stars as directly as this one, which the catalog lists under both Marilyn Monroe and Rock Hudson. The color sheet measures about 28 by 35.5 centimeters, and its record gives no publisher or place of printing, only a date of about 1963, a year after Monroe died in August 1962. Hudson and Monroe had been set to co-star in *Something's Got to Give*, a 20th Century Fox comedy left unfinished when she died. Given that history, the sheet is easy to read as a reminder of a project that never reached the screen.
