California: Images from Marilyn Monroe's first photo shoot have sold for $352,000 (Dh1.29 million) at an auction that included items from Lady Gaga and John Lennon.

Julien's Auctions spokeswoman Caroline Galloway told The Associated Press on Sunday that the Monroe photos - taken in 1946 when she was still Norma Jeane Dougherty - were the highlight of the Beverly Hills auction known as "Icons & Idols."

The photos come with negatives and the rare right to sell and distribute them. A judge in September ruled they must be auctioned to settle debts of photographer Joseph Jasgur.
A Lady Gaga dress sold for $31,250, and the prop gun used in her video for Born This Way went for $7,680. A 1969 caricature John Lennon drew of himself and Yoko Ono went for $90,000.
