Can't speak to Arthur but Marilyn doesn't look messy enough and the Marilyn is not split into two parts as it usually is. I think this comes from an ebay seller who has had a lot of very similar MM "signed" photos, usually with a start price of $2k - $3k. Most have not sold or have just got one bid. At first sight they look pretty good. I am more than a bit disappointed in that seller as he used to have some decent unsigned MM material. Maybe he honestly believes in the autographed material.

Does anyone know the best place to get a genuine Marilyn Monroe autograph with watertight provenance/proofs for under £1000? really struggling to find one.

(This reply is just copied from the other thread with the same question) For under a thousand bucks you'll be lucky even to find one with a provenance that's letting in water everywhere. I guess you might be able to pick-up a run-of-the-mill late 50s/early 60s Colonial Trust cheque for something around $1,000 at auction (e.g. RR) but I think even those go for more like $1,200 - $1,500. Then you have all those nice extras like buyer's premium, credit card charges and fantasy postal charges (I don't know what RR's terms are like but I've been stung enough elsewhere).
