I remember going into the San Diego Sports Hall of Fame in Balboa Park 15 years ago, and seeing the X-rays of Muhammid Ali's broken jaw. It was broken by San Diego's own boxing champ -- Ken Norton, a former Marine stationed in Camp Pendleton.

I always thought having that signed by both boxers would be a cool piece to add to my collection.

Imagine my surprise when I saw an X-ray hit the auction circuit.

It's from 1954, and it's of Marilyn Monroe's chest.

I'm guessing Howard Hughes had a few of those types of X-rays of Jane Russell. I'll keep my eyes open.

The Las Vacation auction was hoping to get $1,200 for them, and I think it's a good bet they will.
