I don't pursue these as much as I used to, but I still have a soft spot for early American magazines. No "run collecting" here, just a nice example or two of pretty much any title, from trade journals to women's magazines to general interest. The cover art drives it as much as the contents for the older stuff.

I can’t say that I knew that Sonja Henie was Queen of the ice but it was a coloring book from 1939 had to have it 

She parlayed her Olympic gold medals into quite the movie career in the late 30s and early 40s. I watched many of her films back in the late 80s (probably on American Movie Classics), but they weren't all that memorable. It seems like they were basically formulaic romantic comedies that allowed Henie to showcase her ice skating skills.

As a side note, my grandmother worked as a telephone operator at Bell Telephone back in the 1940s, and the women there listened in on at least one of Sonja Henie's conversations when she was visiting Detroit. Apparently she swore like a sailor.
