It looks fake as hell to me.... and I agree with Alan, lobby cards would not
have been printed at such an early stage in the filming, except as possible
conceptual mockups, but not a finished press run.

Hi guys -
I ran the Fox Archives for 10 years and never got wind of anything like
this.
It would have qualified as Holy Grail material.
There was bit of footage and there were a few frames of still images -
that's about all that ever surfaced from this film on my watch.
Whoever put the piece together did a good job of capturing period and
style -
However, I don't think Fox would have thrown the switch on the lobby
set until the film was at least nearly finished and close to all
photography in hand to choose from. Not sure there would have been a
rush. Also note there is no key art or stylized logo treatment -
another sign against this coming through Fox Marketing. You would
expect a Monroe image from the film as a repeated element for the
advertising campaign.
But heck - I've been wrong before.
I sure would like to feel the paper - probably good make a much better
appraisal that way.
