:: Smiling coyly over her shoulder in
swimsuit and pumps was the actress Betty Grable, whose iconic image
above became the number-one pin-up of the World War II (1943). A
photographic masterpiece that emphasized Grable’s
beautiful legs. Hers were the ideal legs according to hosiery
specialists of the era [thigh (18.5″) calf (12″), and ankle
(7.5″)]. Grable was noted for having the most beautiful legs in
Hollywood and studio publicity widely dispersed photos featuring them.
They were insured for a million dollars at the Lloyds of London.
