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.

85 in Your Home? some of these who live in the film colony. Lots here, with their actress mistresses, look as though they 'rather enjoy having their pictures taken. A perfect demon for speed is Pauline Starke's prize-winning whippet, shown here all set for a race. Pola Negri's little roll of fluff, called Teddy, is a very smart fellow as well as being quite decorative. He is playing ball here with his mistress. This is the St. Bernard pup that Colleen Moore brought back from abroad — and he's not nearly as big as he 'will' be. A great companion is Lois Wilson's collie dog, Sandy, at the left, and a very pretty person with his white shirt front and his wellmarked face. Lillian Rich's wolfish Malemute, who has just produced five wriggling puppies, would have been one of a sledge team if she had stayed in her native North with her brothers and sisters, but in Hollywood, she lives the life of a lady.
