Description:
The leading Hollywood fan magazine of the 1920s and 1930s. Photoplay offered readers portraits of their favorite movie stars and stories about their personal lives. The magazine played an important promotional function for the Hollywood industry, but its editors and reviewers could also be highly critical of Hollywood. Beginning in 1921, Photoplay bestowed its annual 'Medal of Honor' for the film readers voted as the best of the year. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011.

And ragged, "peely" soles are so noticeably ugly! You know, they have happened to your shoes. But they never need happen again if you remember that the soles of Compo shoes never peel. They just cannot, for the uppers and soles are bonded together as a single unit. Always, Compo shoes present a clean, crisp sole-line. They have lightness, and flexibility that can come only from this new technicpae of shoemaking. And Compo shoes give greater comfort, because of the absence of ridges and seams. Don't tolerate "peely" soles. The way to avoid them is to insist on Compo shoes — as made by over a hundred prominent manufacturers of the most fashionable footwear. Millions of pairs of Compo shoes will be sold this year in the most reliable stores — and at prices which place this important item of correct grooming within the reach of all.
