Mae West: In 1905
The year was 1905 and Mae West was heading for her 12th birthday. Her professional title back than was "BABY MAY, Song and Dance." She had not yet altered the spelling to MAE.
By 1905, this little busy bee had already been performing in amateur competions and with Brooklyn stock companies for a number of years when she sat for this portrait.
NOW AIN'T SHE SWEET?
In contrast, the "grown-up" Mae posed in 1932 for this picture.
