Magazine Movie Ads

I've come across a lot of ads for movies starring Miss Ginger Rogers in my time on the internet.  I've collected a lot of them here.  They are different from the movie posters, which is interesting... at least from my point of view.  I hope you enjoy looking at them.  All the images below are from the Media History Digital Library - http://mediahistoryproject.org/collections/


The posters below are in alphabetical order except for the first one, which is just to get you interested!
