This 1953 Cadillac was gifted to Marilyn Monroe by Jack Benny.

To quote the story: "The show was the season premiere and aired on September 13, 1953, live from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Fox wouldn’t allow Marilyn to be paid for appearing, so Benny sent her a black Cadillac convertible with a red interior. "
