West, Mae

How It's Used

“Gary Giberson bought a handsome two-tone 1931 Ford Model A roadster nine years ago and immediately felt the need to accessorize it. He paid $4,200 for a red Fry visible gasoline pump so statuesque it is nicknamed the Mae West.”

—Dave Caldwell, “Filling Up the Backyard with a Gas Station,” The New York Times, 5 Oct 09, http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/05/automobiles/collectibles/05PETRO.html.
