Vintage Magazine Flickr Group
As you know I'm a big fan of vintage, and I even have my own blog with scans of vintage magazines. But although there are a million vintage themed groups on Flickr I searched and there doesn't seem to be any groups specifically about magazines.
So I started my own Flickr pool, "Vintage Magazine," which you will find here. If you have vintage mags at home (up until the 80s are good) and would like to share them with the world you're very welcome to join! :)

From the ad:
"Joan Crawford
Robert Montgomery
in Clarence Brown's
production
Letty Lynton
with Nils Ashter
May Robson
Lewis Stone
From the novel by Marie Belloc Lowndes
Nils Ashter's return to the screen is something to cheer. He's great in this romantic drama!
Together Again
in another M-G-M hit!
Ever since beautiful Joan Crawford and Bob Montgomery appeared together in "Our Blushing Brides" and "Untamed" we've been swamped with requests to co-star them again. You'll be delighted with the result.
Beautiful Joan Crawford gives what many critics believe to be the most impressive performance of her career. Faced by her former lover and her husband-to-be she takes a course which leads to the very brink of tragedy. Once again Joan Crawford mingles tears and laughter, heart-throbs and thrills -- again she captures the hearts of millions of her screen admirers! You'll compare it with the most thrilling picture you've ever seen!"
