Description:
Began publishing in 1915; mid-level fan magazine on par with Movie Classic and Screenland. Cost a twenty five cents an issue up until pricing pressure from New Movie (c. 1932) incited an across-the-board price decrease to 10 cents. Merged with Charm in 1941, which would later become Glamour magazine (1959). -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013.

Joan Craw ford, right, seems proud of a rather deadly-looking lube which apparently contains all a lady's needs — though if you ask us ! Carmel Myers, above, has what she calls a sanitary lipstick to imitate a match and be discarded after one application of carmine. Fay Webb, below, is one of those girls who loves her little joke, for when timid souls swoon at the sight of a dagger thrust in her stocking, she restores them with the information that it is just a perfume vial ! Sally O'Neil, above, looks heavenward as she snaps open a woolly puppy and discloses in its tummy all the necessaries of a perfect lady. Marcclinc Day, left, ever girly girly, points to her lipstick carried, for some esoteric reason, in the heart of a satin flower on her shoulder. Now you know what a strain it is to be an actr
