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.

But there Is a way to tell choice silver fox— look for "FEDERAL," stamped on the leather side of the pelt. Only skins of outstanding luxuriousness . . . bountiful silvering . . . and lasting loveliness are sold under this name. The jacket above, with its glamorous sheen ... its new "spiral" sleeves . . . and smart casual-formal length ... is only one of many smart models developed in FEDERAL Fox, this fall, and shown at better stores throughout the country.
