...I am in need of your help. I am currently working on my graduate thesis for my MA degree and have hit a bit of a bump. I have chosen to look at the representation of Dana Andrews in Fan magazines for my topic and have really been enjoying the research (hence my lack of any real posts lately).
I would like to include this article above, however, I only own a clipping and have no idea what magazine it came from. I have narrowed down the year to be 1951 and I am thinking it came from Movieland, considering that the font for the page numbers seems to match other issues identically. I am also thinking that it came from an issue around April, May, or June, according the the release dates for the movies mentioned in text. But, again, I am not too sure about this either.
If anyone has a copy of Movieland from this year/month or knows where I can find this article in full, it would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks! And I can't wait to get back into regular blogging once I am done with this project!

The lovely blogger Kate over at Silents and Talkies seems very knowledgeable about this sort of thing. You might want to check with her.

This person on Flickr has the May issue. You might ask them and link to your blog post?

Also, these people have some copies but I didn't have time to click on each one to see the dates:

Since Dana is the author, you could try doing a search that way. Your university librarian will be able to help you decide which database is best, depending on their subscriptions. I already tried a google books search and nothing came up. I may have been able to find some other clues to search with if I could have seen both sides of the page. With that being said, take the page with you when you see the librarian.
PS I am writing my Masters thesis too on women in rockabilly music, but my other degree is in library science :)
