Photograph of “Ralph Waldo Emerson Junior High School Summer Class of 1941” (West Los Angeles) includes Marilyn Monroe when she was just Norma Jean Baker. In 1941, Marilyn had just turned 15 years old. She was probably older than her classmates. Photo is VG-EX. Verso is covered with inscriptions and signatures from classmates. Almost impossible to find original photos documenting Marilyn’s school days.
