Date Sold 8/7/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Show Hat (measures 16" x 24" [41 x 61 cm]) (Learn More) Mae West (born Mary Jane West) was a major star in the early and mid 1930s, as famous for her racy comments and raw sexuality as for her actual acting achievements. She was the toast of Broadway during the late 1920s, because for ten years, she had starred in a series of very sexy plays, including "Sex" in 1926, for which she was prosecuted on morals charges in 1927! In 1928, she starred in "Diamond Lil" (which later became the 1933 movie "She Done Him Wrong"). But due to censorship difficulties, she made very few movies, and those were greatly toned down versions of her stage successes. Some of her movies include: Night After Night, She Done Him Wrong, I'm No Angel, Belle of the Nineties, Goin' to Town, Klondike Annie, Go West Young Man, Every Day's a Holiday, My Little Chickadee, The Heat's On, Myra Breckinridge, and Sextette! She passed away in 1980 at the age of 87. Important Added Info: Note that included with this hat is a certificate of authenticity from San Diego Fine Arts, and handwritten on it is a description of it written by Mae West's nephew, John West! It will need to be sent by itself in a large box that measures approximately 18" x 26" x 5", so bear this in mind before bidding. Condition: very good. The hat has some wear at small parts of the edges, but given that it has ostrich feathers and lots of rhinestones, we think it is pretty astonishing that it has survived in as nice condition as it has.
