My parents in 1939

This old family photo amuses me and is a reminder of how important photography was in my father's life. There is no date on the back of the photo and I'm not sure if this was taken before or after I was born. (Later: this magazine issue came out in June 1939.) Vera Kathleen Bassindale (nee Neal), 1914 -1998 Tom Carden Bassindale, 1907 - 1976 They were married on 4th June 1938. Thanks to George (Dixon), I now have the following information: US edition; 25cents. June 1939. Bette Davis. Photoplay did not have its own publication in the UK until 1950. www.moviemags.com/main.php?title=PHOTOPLAY&amp ; etos=1939 "Photoplay first appeared in 1912, but was not initially successful. However, when James Quirk took over editorial duties in 1914 he implemented changes that would make Photoplay the top film magazine, one which by 1922 would boast a circulation of over two million."
