MAE WEST
Black and white publicity photograph of Mae West wearing a white stole, signed with her "Best Wishes" in purple ink
Inscribed photograph signed "To/John/Best Wishes/Mae West" in purple ink. B/w, 8x10 overall, 7½x9½ image, one surface. The vivacious, risqué Mae West (1892-1980) had such success portraying Lil in the play's first production at New York's Royale Theatre that she became the acknowledged queen of camp with her sexual innuendoes and double entendres. Her nearly single-handed sexual revolution took Hollywood by surprise in the early 1930s, when West starred in such films as Night After Night(1932) and She Done Him Wrong(1933), the film version of Diamond Lil, in which she uttered her famous line, "Come up and see me sometime" (to co-star Cary Grant). Although she made only 12 films, most of them have become classic comedy hits, including Klondike Annie (1936) and My Little Chickadee (1940), which co-starred the inimitable W.C. Fields. The talented lady from Brooklyn also directed some of her plays, such as Drag (1927), and wrote most of her own nightclub material and scripts. Lightly toned, cracked, creased and bowed. Developing errors were reproduced in photo. Light scratches (not visible head-on) and impressions on image. Otherwise in fine condition.
