A 26-foot tall statue of Marilyn Monroe is separated into four pieces in Chicago on May 7, 2012.
NBC Chicago reports — A 40,000-pound, 26-foot statue of Marilyn Monroe’s famous pose from “The Seven-Year Itch” was dismantled Monday night in preparation for the long drive to its new home in California.
The initially controversial “Forever Marilyn” creation by Seward Johnson was unveiled last July. She now heads to Palm Springs, where the actress was discovered by a Hollywood agent.

VirtualTourist also questioned why a likeness of the star’s famous, New York City-based stance was placed in Chicago and said the towering, blown dress forced many to peer up at Marilyn’s panties.
