Note that Gustav Frohlich, the star of this movie, is best remembered for his leading role in Fritz Lang's "Metropolis"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: The poster was placed on to a thin linen backing shortly after being printed. The purpose was to reinforce the poster, so that it would survive, when it was passed from theater to theater, and when it was put up on walls and taken down. Such posters can be professionally removed from the original linen and placed on to a proper linen backing. I have done this to several such posters, and they end up looking wonderful! Note that this is a very rare "country of origin" poster from Germany from before World War II. There are very few German movie posters from before World War II in existence (because of the massive paper shortages in Germany during World War II), and most of those few are in museums. Also note that this poster has been kraftbacked, which means it was backed onto a brown paper soon after it was printed (this process is called "kraft-backing", and posters with it are called "kraft-backed"). One could have it professionally removed from the kraft paper and linenbacked, and it would look great! Condition: good to very good. The poster was placed on to a thin linen backing shortly after being printed. There are many brown stains on the back of the linen, but they do not affect the poster, which has creases along the folds and some faint smudges and scuffs scattered throughout. If the poster is removed from the thin linen, it will look fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
