It was published by the Story-Press Corporation (later Consolidated Magazines) as a companion to its Red Book and Blue Book magazines. For most of its run, the magazine primarily covered theatre, but converted to a women's magazine for its last few years before ceasing publication in 1921." (Wikipedia)
