a lot of 6 issues of newspaper rotogravure sections. These were the supplement sections filled with sepia photos that appeared in almost every major newspaper in the 1920s and 1930s (remember in Easter Parade when Fred Astaire sung about being pictured in the rotogravure?). Five of these sections are devoted solely to movies (they are from the Des Moines Sunday Capital), and the sixth is from the Omaha Sunday Bee, and has coverage of non-movie news as well.

Condition: good. The magazines are fragile (typical of 90 year-old newspapers) and have some varying degrees of defects (see our image to get a sense of the condition of each).
