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.

If you have any dashing dude-ranch vacation plans be sure to copy this costume worn by little Anne Baxter, now appearing in M-GM's "20 Mule Team": a blue denim flaring skirt and loose bush jacket; and a gay red bandana shirt that even a hardened cowboy would envy. Costume designed by Wanda; selected from Nobby Knit, Beverly Hills More of Anne Baxter (upper right), having herself a time in blue linen slacks and jacket from Louella Ballerino, and a blue and yellow plaid shirt that puts all the boys to shame. Note the jacket's big patch pockets and the sleeves that will push up casually or button tightly at the wrist. Anne chose her outfit from Nancy's, Hollywood Here at the right is vivid little Judy Garland of M-G-M's "Strike Up the Band." On sizzling summer days Judy whips around in a crisp white linen jacket-frock from Lanz of California, bordered in hoot-mon plaid. She wears her heart on her shoes and gloves — in bright red on navy, with an upside-down bowl of red felt for a hat YOUNG F U 50
