An Original Vintage Magazine (measures 8 1/2" x 11 1/4" [22 x 29 cm]) (Learn More) Screenland ("The Smart Screen Magazine", "America's Smart Screen Magazine"; "Made where the Movies are made"), one of the many movie magazines sold to the public. Each issue features a great full color cover of a leading star of the day, plus lots of interior publicity stories about current stars and movies with many black and white images throughout. Also, in every issue are many wonderful vintage ads, in black and white, and sometimes the ads can be just as much fun as the original stories and pictures. Of course, some of the ads are from movies that were about to open, and in the early days of eBay, people would remove those full-page ads and auction them by themselves, and they would often sell for $10, $20, or more, just for a single movie ad removed from a magazine just like this! Note that at some point in the very early 1920s, the publishers of this magazine added "from Hollywood" after the word "Screenland", but at some time later, the title changed back to simply "Screenland". Also note that in 1929, the magazine added "DEVOTED TO SILENT AND TALKING PICTURES" to its cover, but dropped it once all movies were in sound. Also note that at some point in the 1950s, the magazine started adding coverage of TV stars as well, and they added a "plus TV-LAND" underneath the title. Important Added Info: Note that we have provided a picture of the front cover of the magazine, a picture of the table of contents page, and a picture of one interior two-page spread (but we didn't make much effort to find the best ones!). These images should greatly help you judge the overall condition of the magazine, and the contents page lets you know exactly what articles and stories are contained in this particular issue. Please know that these magazines are sealed in bags and are ready for shipping, and we cannot answer any questions about them or look through them for you, so please bid (or do not bid) based on the images we have provided. Condition: very good. Note that we have attempted to check to see if the magazine is complete and uncut, and we believe that it is. However, there is a slight possibility that we might have missed a small cut or a page that was neatly removed, and if that happens, you can return the magazine. We have solely provided an overall description of the condition of the magazine, but you can also refer to our super-sized images. Please bid (or not bid) based on that overall grade and by viewing the super-sized images. Learn More about condition grades
