Date Sold 4/23/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 21 postcards of Brigitte Helm. She was a leading German actress from 1927 to 1935. She quickly became a star in her very first movie, Fritz Lang's Metropolis. She had several other starring roles in the late 1920s and early 1930s. She had several bad breaks. She was Josef von Sternberg's first choice for the starring role in "The Blue Angel", but that role went to Marlene Dietrich. She was supposedly James Whale's first choice for the starring role in "Bride of Frankenstein", but she didn't want to go to America. She was supposedly very unhappy with the Nazi takeover of Germany and Hitler's rise to power, and she had a car accident that resulted in a jail term, and all of this caused her to make a movie in France, after which she moved to Switzerland in 1935 and never made another movie, and she went into isolation, just as much as Greta Garbo did in the U.S. a few years later, and she never gave any interviews. She passed away in 1996 at the age of 90! Note that the items in this lot are from the 1930s. We have provided an image of the front and back of all the postcards. Note that all of these postcards have standard postcard printing on the back, and a few were used and have writing on the back. A few of them are Ross postcards, which you can tell by looking at our images. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
