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.

« Only in Kotex can you find these 3 satisfying comforts" CANT CHAFE . . CANT FAIL . . CANT SHOW "Three exclusive features solve three important problems every woman faces. I explain them to you here because there is no other place for you to learn about them.' Author of 'Marjorie May's 12th Birthday CANT CHAFE . . . To prevent all chafing and all irritation, the sides of Kotex are cushioned in a special, soft, downy cotton. That means lasting comfort and freedom every minute Kotex is worn. But, mind you, sides only are cushioned . . . the center surface is left free to absorb. CANT FAIL . There is a special center layer in the heart of the pad. It has channels that guide moisture evenly the whole length of the pad— thus avoids accidents. And this special center gives "body" but not bulk to the pad in use . . . makes Kotex keep adjusting itself to every natural movement. No twisting. The filler of Kotex is actually 5 times more absorbent than cotton. CANT SHOW Now you can wear what you will without lines ever showing. Why? Kotex ends are not merely rounded as in ordinary pads, but flattened and tapered besides. Absolute invisibility always. No "give away" lines or wrinkles . . . and that makes for added assurance that results in peace of mind and poise. # I've always felt that the real facts on this intimate subject were withheld from women. So here I present information every woman should know. I realize that most sanitary napkins look pretty much alike. Yet they aren't alike either in the way they're made or in the results they give. For only genuine Kotex offers the 3 exclusive advantages I explain on this page — the 3 features that bring you women the comfort and safety you seek. And did you ever look at it this way? With Kotex now costing so little and giving so much, there's really no economy in buying any other kind. ^ times as absorbent Did you know this?

If you require extra protection you will find Super Kotex ideal. For emergency, Kotex is in West Cabinets in ladies' rest rooms. WONDERSOFT KOTEX NEW ADJUSTABLE BELT REQUIRES NO PINS!
