Movie Novelizations:

Novela Semanal Cinematografica is a great little magazine from Mexico.  From 1939 to the mid 1950's, they took the movies of the day and every week made one into a short novel.  They added a nice cover scene, and several pictures inside.  Then they finished up with some Hollywood gossip.  What a great idea!  Each has 66 pages, on average.
