A GLIMPSE AT THE EDITOR'S NOTEBOOK THE cover of this issue of New Movie Magazine carries the third of our plastic masks. Last month we had Jean Harlow, and the month before that Joan Crawford — the first mask ever used as a cover design by any motion picture publication. We think you will agree, looking at the pictures above, that this one of Katharine Hepburn is the best of the three. THAT is one reason we are going on with them — because they are getting better and better. Helen Liedloff, the sculptor, is an artist of note, who has had showings of her work at the Art Center and other galleries in New York. She has won a reputation for her striking modelling of hands, in particular. Among celebrities whose heads or hands she has rendered in clay are Katherine Cornell, Henry Hull, Amelia Earhart, Lily Pons, Bobby Jones, Albert Einstein and Ely Culbertson. AND the other reason we are going on with the masks is that you like them! i We confess we were a little afraid you mightn't. But, of the letters pouring in, seven out of ten say: "The new covers are grand." And so we want to go ahead with our experiment, although it still isn't too late to write in and scold us, if you want to. I VOL. XII No. 3 L September 1935' B UT Miss Hepburn, we're delighted to say, likes this one. Note the inscription on the big photo of the mask above. CATHERINE McNELIS, Publisher Frank J.
