Photoplay is a magazine for fans that ran from 1911 to 1980. It was published by Macfadden Publications.
This website is a collection of photoplay articles and advertisements collected by Isabella Davis for her capstone project in spring semester 2023. The capstone idea was regarding women's lack of control of their bodies in the aspects of beauty, career, family and house. The final idea for the paper was regarding women's control of their bodies through beauty. The advertisements were used for both visual and text analysis.
