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.

72 Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section PARIS VIVAUDOU NEW YORK \mis ■TALC-FACE POWDER-PERFUME-TOILETWATER Mavis Face Powder and Compacts There is a vast difference between Mavis Face Powder and ordinary powders. Mavis Face Powder does not have to be "heavy" to make it stay on. It is light and pure — soft as the petal of a flower. It cannot injure the skin as some "heavy" powders do, and yet, it stays on unusually well. That Mavis Powders are far superior is proven by the fact that millions ot women prefer them. They know that the difference in powders shows in their complexions. Do not be misled by extravagant claims of inferior products. The Vivaudou name is a guide to quality.
