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.

She prefers this type of jacquette to the three-quarter coat, and has introduced this brown-andblack Paisley outfit with a shaded underblouse and a suggestion of monkey fur here and there. The combination of brown and black promises to continue in popularity. She wears a figured turban, bag and sandals that harmonize. Photo by A. Cooly Photo by A.

The charming dinner frock pictured in the center of this page is of mountain^haze chiffon beaded in orchid design. A bow and a few loops of violet ribbon complete the trimming and the picturesque, drooping lines of the hat add grace to the costume.
