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.

NEVER IGNORE •PINK TOOTH BRUSH " m. ffuM&Ry, ffoME/? GIRL: No, I ’m not hungry. Just looking. CUPID: Just looking, she says! “Lovelorn Maiden Gazes Yearningly at Valentine, and says she’s—” GIRL: Smart-aleck! Know-it-all! Instead of poking fun at me, you might try to help! CUPID : Me help you? Why don’t you stop moping long enough to help yourself? Smile at men. Gleam at ’em, give ’em the old glitter. They’ll eat it up! GIRL: And then have stomach-ache! You should see my smile, Cupid. Looks as though it got dragged along a country road. I clean my teeth faithfully, but— CUPID: No sparkle, eh? And “pink” on your tooth brush? GIRL: Well, now that I think of it— CUPID: Now that you think of it! You beanhead! “Pink” is a warning to see your dentist. Let him figure out what’s what. He may say it’s just a case of soft foods robbing your gums of exercise. If so, he’ll probably suggest “the helpful stimulation of Ipana and massage.” GIRL: And then, as I’m walking out, he’ll hand me a box containing one bright smile— CUPID: Nitwit, bright smiles depend largely on firm, healthy gums. Ipana not only cleans teeth— it’s designed, with gentle massage, to help gums. If your dentist suggests massage with Ipana, start right in . . . and Baby, you’ll be on the way to a smile that'll have men eating their hearts out for you! ihh Snwtit 'Beajurtlj IPANAxand MASSAGE Product of Bristol-Myers P I I 1
