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.

He has so many interests — his motors, his little theater work, his picture career — and I feel sure he’ll be happier alone.” “And what’s all this about Van Johnson?” we asked. “A radio columnist announced you and Van would marry after the divorce.” “I denied making such a statement in the morning papers,” she said. “You can imagine how shocked I was at such a blunt statement and I’m sure if Van were listening he was too.
