The sheet music you picture is from 1919. I have gone through all the available Motion Picture Classics, but unfortunately there are 4 issues at the end of 1919 that are not digitized. Could possibly be one of those. It can't be from 1920, because it seems that they went up to 25 cents after 1919, and this issue says 20 cents.
Thanks for the info! Hopefully the covers for those 4 issues turn up...

Norma Talmadge on the cover of Screenland, December 1923. I'm in love with the colors in this portrait :he:

Isn't that stunning?? The variety and complexity of colors in the hair and skin tones is amazing.

Had to post another Screenland cover. This one is from September 1923 and features Bebe Daniels in a portrait by Rolf Armstrong (he also painted the last one of Norma Talmadge). Once again, those colors :he:
