The source of this dismantled scrapbook is unknown. It seems to have been compiled during the late 1920s - early 1930s (with some very clearly modern updates.) Comprised mainly of unmodified newspaper and magazine clippings (with photographs by Hartsook, Evans, Hesser, Newberg, Lindstedt-Phelan, Strauss Peyton, Nickolas Murray, G.L. Manuel Freres, Ira L. Hill, and beyond,) there are also number of nice hand-colored clippings and handwritten notes by the maker. Also worth mentioning is the May, 1926 Screenland cover, with a metallic gold background, featuring a painting by Jay Weaver. A nice assortment even if just miscellaneous clipped photos. Donated to MPF.
