Auction History Result 1x0545 LOT OF 1 SCREEN ROMANCES JULY-DECEMBER 1938 MOVIE MAGAZINE BOUND VOLUME 1938 Date Sold 3/20/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 1 bound volume featuring July-December 1938 issues of Screen Romances. Note that someone at the bindery company that prepared these bound volumes was having a bad day when they did this volume, because they had "SCREEN STORIES" printed on the spine, but actually, the bound volume contains issues of "Screen Romances"! We wonder if someone got fired over this. Of course, Screen Romances was 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 condensed short "novelizations" of a group of then-currently playing movies (one would be longer and run as a "complete novel"; this began with the May 1936 issue, when they expanded the magazine). Each of the novelizations has lots of sepia images taken from the movie, plus portraits of some of the stars. Note that early in 1939, Screen Romances drastically lowered their price from 25 cents to 10 cents, and also lowered the page count by about 20%. Also note that at some point in the 1940s, they slightly changed the magazine's title to "Screen Romances Stories", but we are not sure for how long, and it reverted back to "Screen Romances". Note that this is one of four bound volumes of early movie magazines that we are currently auctioning, in four separate auctions. Measurements: 9" x 11 1/2"Condition: very good. Other than being bound into the bound volume, the issues of the magazine are in pretty nice condition (we have pictured three interior covers to give you a sense of the condition of the volume, but of course, we wish we could have pictured all the covers and the table of contents for each magazine, but time does not allow that).
