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.

Loretta Young in a dream hat, guaranteed to make even Boris Karloff look pretty i Hollywood summertime — and a riot of flowers and straws scouted for you in this gossamer gossip BY EDITH GWYNN The boys sat up and said “pretty please” when Joan wore her pink straw and veiling at Ciro’s «A LL the Hollywood girls are up to their necks (and higher!) in the pre-June weather. And that’s why this time the accent is on hats. You can tell from the lovely lids in the photos that the gals are impartial about their headgear this year. All kinds— large and small, forward tilts and backon-the-head types— are much in evidence. But gone are the huge flowers and cabbage roses that decorated just about every other lid a season or so ago. In fact, Walter Florel, whose chapeaus are grabbed up by the Hollywood belles as fast as he designs and makes them, says that hats generally will be daintier from now on. Lacy straws, much maline, dainty flowers and other trimmings. 58
