NEW YORK — A trove of John F. Kennedy pictures by White House photographer Cecil Stoughton fetched over $150,000 at a New York City auction. It included a rare image of Marilyn Monroe with the president and Robert Kennedy at a Democratic fundraiser.

The collection of 12,000 photographs was estimated to bring in $200,000. It was offered by Stoughton’s estate at Bonhams auction house Thursday.

The Monroe image, contained in an envelope labeled “Sensitive Material – May 19, 1962,” sold for just over $9,000. The price included the buyers premium and was above its presale estimate of $4,000 to $6,000.

Stoughton was the first official White House photographer. One of his most famous images shows Lyndon B. Johnson being sworn in following Kennedy’s assassination.
