Photoplay Magazine, Jan. 1915

This periodical from a century ago provides a fascinating look at motion picture culture well before the talkies made it to theaters. It's amazing to see what has—and what hasn't changed over time.

It's rather interesting to look at some of the printed pages and wonder if the lead ornaments I'm seeing on the given page are similar to anything I have in my job cases. Also it's a fascinating look at another time with different values and viewpoints. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Glad you saw this Dale - I did think of you and your printing press as I perused this magazine. It truly is a work of art particularly when you understand the printing technologies of 1915.

The societal aspects are fun to examine as well. I even find that despite the passing of nearly a century since its publication, this magazine is still jam-packed with entertainment value.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment - you know me... I like 'em [smiley:;)]
