MAE WEST had many fans in the military.
• • Her 1926 play "Sex" featured actors clad as sailors.
• • A flotation device was famously nicknamed "the Mae West."
• • Mae never liked to make her humor political nor bipartisan. For all that, Mae West was proudly all American. How many actresses dressed in a Statue of Liberty outfit – – twice?
• • Edith Head designed this iconic costume for Mae West in 1970 for the film "Myra Breckinridge."
• • On Memorial Day, we salute a unique creation that was made in the United States of America: Mae West.
