Here are some vintage OOAK photos taken by a view master stereo camera. I was told they are the only known original color photos of Jane and Marilyn at the event. The pictures are of the two outside Graumans Theater when they are putting there prints in the cement.
I love how they show the event from a "normal" person's view and what someone like me would have seen if they had been there. Looking through the viewmaster(lighted/electric version), it is like being right there in the action. The stereo effect really add nice depth to the pictures. I wish I could show better pictures, but I took them through the lens of a viewmaster, so it is impossible to get great photos.
Hope you enjoy them.
