Picturegoer

Picturegoer was a fan magazine published in the United Kingdom between 1911 and 23 April 1960.

Clark Gable, Laurence Olivier, Bette Davis, Paulette Goddard, Petula Clark, Fred Astaire, and Richard Burton were among the hundreds of stars who graced its front cover.

[5] After World War II, it found itself competing with periodicals published by the Rank Organisation, Odeon Cinemas, and Associated British Cinemas, which replaced Picturegoer with their own magazines at their theatre kiosks.

As a result, Picturegoer became more sensational in the 1950s, with covers featuring cheesecake and beefcake-style artwork.

The last issue of Picturegoer with Disc Date was published on 23 April 1960, with a cover showcasing Jackie Rae and Janette Scott.
