HERE is a chance for every M-G-M Fan to show what he can do. And what an enviable prize! Something actually used in the making of motion pictures. A really personal prize. Something that has belonged to perhaps your favorite star. And it all depends on whether you actually see motion pictures or merely look at them.
I am submitting six questions. For the lady who sends the best answers I have selected as my reward the Slave Anklet I wear in "The Taxi Dancer".
Nor are the gentlemen forgotten. If it is a man who is the lucky winner, Lon Chaney has promised the wrist watch he carried in "Tell it to the Marines".
And moreover I have fifty of my favorite photographs which are ready to be autographed for the next fiftv best contestants.
Read over my questions carefully. Think over the pictures you have seen. And then tell me the Tnswers.
