A BUSTIER top, worn by Marilyn Monroe in the film Some Like It Hot, is expected to make more than £4,000 at a sale of movie memorabilia at Bonhams in London in March 7th.

The pink and white striped bustier, which the actress wore getting off a bus in the film, will be one of the highlights of the sale, but there are several other interesting lots. Errol Flynn's trunk, filled with personal possessions, that was taken from the actor's debt ridden yachts moored off the French Riviera, is expected to make up to £5,000.

It has been owned for many years by Jack Warner of Warner Brothers, and it contains several shirts, floral ties, pyjamas, packs of cigarettes and a pair of tights. A pair of black leather boxing boots, worn by Errol Flynn in Gentleman Jim, and mounted in a display case, is estimated at £8,000 to £12,000.

Two furs worn by Jean Harlow could fetch up to £3,000, while Larry Hagman's 10 gallon hat, worn in the series Dallas, and autographed by the actor, is estimated at £200-£300.
