Description:
Relatively short-lived magazine that nonetheless played a crucial role in the gossip industry. Launched in 1929, it cost only ten cents, when the majority of high-end magazines sold for a quarter. It was also primarily sold through Woolworth’s five and dime stores; the combination of cost and accessibility led to its dominance, by 1933, over all other magazines (circulation: 650,000). As a result, the other magazines decreased their price to match New Movie’s. New Movie had less content and poorer quality drawings and illustrations, but the content similar in tone and quality to that of the high end magazines. Ceased publication in 1935. -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013. Secondary sources consulted: Inside the Hollywood Fan Magazine by Anthony Slide and MovieMags.com.

Its deep-cleansing lather is wonderfully mild and gentle. Scientific tests that have been made on the skins of hundreds of women show that Lifebuoy is more than 20r'o milder than many so-called "beauty soaps." So much lather Even in hardest water, Lifebuoy gives floods or rich, refreshing, penetrating lather that purifies pores, stops "B.O." (body odor). Its own pleasant, hygienic scent vanishes as you rinse. Approved by Good Housekeeping Bureau The New Movie Magazine, April, 1935
