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.

On the little one, a flower vase is inscribed “ John Clark Gable.” On the big one is Bunker’s picture. The high canopied crib into which Kay lovingly tucks her baby is guarded by a funny little French poodle that’s really a play table in disguise. The curly covering will protect Johnny from bumps. 34
