Gossip Never Hurts


Issue #197 - October 1927

Old magazine covers are one of my favorite finds. This particular one is of an old movie magazine called Photoplay. The artist is Charles Sheldon, and it is of actress Dolores Costello. I'm guessing this was done in pastels. The minimal use of colors is perfect for the composition plus you can never go wrong with yellow. And check out the way half of her cute, cloche hat is just made up of empty space.

And at 25¢ it's totally a steal!
