This Mae West Limited Edition Rubber Duckie is an extremely well detailed and artfully decorated; it measures approximately 6X5X4 and individually gift boxed. Almost as famous for her quick wit as her other attributes, her most famous quip "Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?” often varied to "Is that a banana in your pocket . . .” is accurately attributed to her. She made this remark in February 1936, at the train station in Los Angeles upon her return from Chicago, when a Los Angeles police officer was assigned to escort her home. She first delivered the line on film in My Little Chickadee, and again to George Hamilton in her last movie, Sextette. It is one of the most quoted lines in movie history. Other famous West quips include: "A hard man is good to find." - "His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork." - To the question "Have you ever met a man that could make you happy?": "Several times." - "Why don't you come on up and see me sometime, when I got nothin' on but the radio?" - "Good girls go to heaven, but bad girls get to go everywhere." - "Sex is like bridge. If you don't have a good partner, you'd better have a good hand." - "My left leg is Christmas and my right leg is New Year's. Why don't you visit me between the holidays?" Please note this item is not a bobblehead, wobbler or head knocker. |
