    Vol. 47, No. 3. November 1937. Picture Play Magazine, originally titled Picture-Play Weekly was an American weekly published magazine centered around the movie industry during the golden-age of Hollywood. It was one of the earliest published tabloid style magazines that focused on celebrity gossip, but also included behind-the-scenes content, and movie reviews. It was first published on April 10, 1915, and ultimately transitioned from a weekly to a monthly publication before the end of it's production run in late 1941 after merging with Charm Magazine. This issue's articles include: "The Power of the Candid Camera" Garbo and Hepburn both avoid the press; "A Star You Never Read About" Gene Autry; "Sophie Carries On" Sophie Tucker; and more. Full-page ads for: "Conquest" with Greta Garbo; "Stand-In" with Joan Blondell and Humphrey Bogart; "Stage Door" with Katharine Hepburn and Ginger Rogers; and "Life Begins in College" with The Ritz Brothers.
