Women of Mention--Betty Grable






December 18, 1916-July 2, 1973. Betty Grable was a fantastic singer, dancer, and actress. Grable was particularly noted for having the most beautiful legs in Hollywood and studio publicity widely dispersed photos featuring them. Hosiery specialists of the era often noted the ideal proportions of her legs as: thigh (18.5") calf (12"), and ankle (7.5"). Grable's legs were famously insured by her studio for $1,000,000 with Lloyds of London. Wasn't she gorgeous?
