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.

The mind, particularly in these restless and unsettled times, can become as ill as the body. “Louella, I tell you in all sincerity that the four months I spent in the Menninger Clinic are the most important in my life. I want to talk about it. ( Continued on page 81) 40 His own man: Dan Dailey appears next in “ Mabel and Me” rots
