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.

Dorothy Janis, seated, and Raquel Torres, standing, above, frolic in the garden at the Metro-Goldwyn studio. Ralph Forbes and Lillian Gish, left, in an idyllic moment from "The Enemy." William Haines and Leila Mclntyre, above, find that the swing helps vastly to prolong their flirtation in "Alias Jimmy Valentine," much to their enjoyment. George K. Arthur, below, and Dorothy Janis, who certainly makes for any swing in sight, steal away to the studio garden for a tete-a-tete far from the madding crowd on the set.
