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.

Beginning in 1921, Photoplay bestowed its annual 'Medal of Honor' for the film readers voted as the best of the year. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011.

It was a nicer idea than that of the woman who stopped me later in Bullock’s Wilshire. She stared down at me and then announced in a voice like a steam whistle, “Why, it’s Shirley Temple.
