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.

This was the blessed, yawny, quiet hour before bedtime, with the children long since tucked away to sleep, and the house peaceful and hushed as if it, too, would soon be closing its eyes on another day. Susie had some new magazines and I wanted to finish my paper before turning in. And I’m glad I did, because I found this article which answered a question that keeps cropping up in my mail. Susie and I had long known the answer, but this was by a psychologist, Lawrence Gould. It’s always gratifying to find an authority for what you know already. “Listen to this, Susie,” I said.
