I remember the bra commercial fairly well. Of course, she wasn't shown actually modeling the undergarment, but I do remember her talking about "full-figured" girls like herself, and presumably, the women out there in TVLand that the product was intended for. Probably Playtex, but I can't remember exactly.

I'll bet that commercial can probably be found on YouTube, or somewhere on the Internet, especially now that Jane Russell has passed. If not now, then I'm sure someone will post it before too long.

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
