EXPOSING ANDY CLYDE
WHICH WOULD YOU MARRY?
At the right we present Andy Clyde as you know him on the screen. On the left we present Andy Clyde as he looks in private life. You'd never recognize him at a premiere—or even walking down Hollywood Boulevard. When it comes to seeking privacy, Andy Clyde and Carbo have much in common.
ANDY CLYDE wants to get married!
Now don't all you fair, fat and forty girls start primping and setting your caps for him, because Andy doesn't he g lieve in marrying a woman older than himself.
Yes, you heard right the first time — "older than himself."
outside the small circle of his friends and professional associates thinks Andy is somewhere near the age of Pop Martin, the character for which he i-s famous. A real "Specialist" type. Nothing could be further from the truth — by many, many years.
As a matter of fact — and there's a picture on this page t6 prove it — Andy is young and handsome, or handsomely young, if you prefer it that way. And. speaking of marriage, as we were above, it might not also be amiss to mention the fact that he has a lot of that commodity which it takes to keep the wolf away — money, if we must use the sordid word.
Now, Andy is pretty well known as an actor. Why is i it that none of you fans ever had any idea of him except as an amusing, oldish character comedian? You know
. . . Surprised isn't the word for what you'll be when you learn what sort of a chap Andy Clyde really is. Absolutely different from what you'd expect
FRANC DILLON
Undoubtedly everyone
practically all there is to know about every actor and actress in Hollywood who means anything at all at the box office — always excepting Garbo,of course.
Andy, however, is perhaps the one example in Hollywood of an actor who has honestly and sincerely kept himself out of the limelight — again excepting Garbo. He has never had his private life publicized. In fact, he likes to be Pop Martin on the screen because his make-up allows him to have a private life, a luxury not sought after by many stars. In a profession dependent upon self-exploitation, Andy chooses to live quietly, almost obscurely.
No one, except his friends, ever recognizes Andy without his make-up. He can walk up and down Hollywood Boulevard, play golf at any country club, attend a premiere (which he does seldom), or dine at any popular eating place without being asked once for his autograph, although the thousands of fan letters he receives each month attest to his popularity on the screen.
An important New York critic was introduced to Andy one day in a cafe. The critic heard only the "Sennett Studio" part of the introduction. (Continued on page 106)
