The attached magazine profile of Judy Garland (né Francis Ethel Gumm, 1922 - 1969) appeared alongside an article about her frequent costar Mickey Rooney, and was written at a time when she was at the top of her game. The article tells of her rise to stardom, from the time she was first noticed onstage with her sisters in Lake Tahoe to her starring roll in The Wizard of Oz just the year before. "Still, her favorite picture is the one that shot her up to join the movie fans top-ten, Love Finds Andy Hardy . Because audiences could see with one eye shut that the Rooney-Garland team was one of the cutest to come out of Hollywood, they demanded more of the same, got it in Babes in Arms , will get it again in Andy Hardy Meets a Debutante 
and Strike Up the Band ."
