Catalogue note
Picturegoer incorporating Film Weekly, No. 527 (New Series), Vol. 10, dated 28 June 1941, with Michael Redgrave and Phyllis Calvert on the colour cover. Beyond its star imagery, the issue is particularly strong as a wartime cinema document: the rear page carries a full-page contemporary advertisement for Walter Greenwood’s Love on the Dole, prominently naming Deborah Kerr among the cast, while the interior reader pages include ‘What Do Soldiers Like? Letters from the Forces’, directly recording servicemen’s responses to cinema entertainment during the Second World War.
