Among my mother's belongings I recently found an album were she cut out pictures and glued them in sometime in the 1930's, I remember having seen it a few times as a kid and wondered who all those people were, and she mentioned that they were from movies she had seen. I forgot about that album for many years, but I guess that is when the seed was planted.
Filled with named like Deanna Durbin, Judy Garland, Leslie Howard, Adolf Jahr, Ginger Rogers and above all the man among men Clark Gable.
Maybe she too was once pushed by a grand Aunt, who was around when Rudolph Valentino was alive, she was also the one that specifically wanted me to inherit her old 1920's Movie magazine's she collected, because I "know what to do with them". They certainly are invaluable documents written in the 1920's.
Unlike others who have answered here, in Sweden we didn't have much television in the 1950's, unlike nowdays when they show all kind of crap on many channels.
