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.

64 In and Out of the Studios Who would think that the toothless old man above is one and the same person as the dapper young blade at the right? Yet he is. It's Jack Duffy, whom you must often have seen in Christie comedies. Jack is noted for his old-man roles. J* "Meet my pal," says Junior Coghlan. He proudly presents this latest photo of himself and dog. Junior is the small boy who plays big parts in Cecil De Mille's films. They say he's going to be starred pretty soon in a picture made specially for him. Meantime, he's appearing in "Rubber Tires." Left, poor Sally O'Neil is locked up in her chair between scenes of "Frisco Sally Levy " while Director William Beaudine sits grimly by and keeps guard — he's taking no chances .on losing her. Only the dog has pity — but he hasn't the key to the padlock.
