Marilyn MonroeMarilyn Monroe's most prized possessions will be sold at two separate auctions in the U.S on Monday.

The late screen legend's clothing, furniture and private documents will be sold at Bonhams and Butterfields' auction in Los Angeles and Julien's Auctions in Las Vegas.

Experts believe the double bill is the most significant bonanza of Monroe memorabilia since Christie's New York sold off items from Monroe's estate in 1999, raising a whopping $13.5 million. And Darren Julien, head of Julien's Auctions, predicts the items will raise a lot of money.

He tells the New York Daily News, "She's the top. Elvis (Presley) is comparable, but there are some things of Marilyn's that just go over the top."
