Zouzou, the 1934 Marc Allegret French romantic musical (an unusual story of a black girl and a white man who are raised as brother and sister as children, but when they grow up, she is in love with him, and when he is accused of a crime, she tries to become a successful performer so she can earn money for his defense) starring Josephine Baker (in the title role as Zouzou), Jean Gabin, Pierre Larquey, Yvette Lebon, Illa Meery, and Palau. Note that Josephine Baker was a black African American stage performer, singer, and actress from the 1920s to the 1960s, who spent much time on stage, and made only a few movies. She went to Europe and achieved enormous success (and notoriety) in the Follies Bergere and other shows, because she danced nude in some of her dances. She only starred in two movies, both in the 1930s, Zou-Zou and Princess Tam-Tam, but she appeared in smaller roles in some movies in the 1920s and the 1940s and 1950s. Note that this movie was shown in France in 1934, and in other countries in the next few years after that, but it was not exhibited in the U.S., no doubt because of the interracial romance and Miss Baker's sexuality. It was finally released in the U.S. in 1989. If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided a picture of the front cover of the magazine, and pictures of interior two-page spreads (including the table of contents page if there is one; but we didn't make much effort to find the best ones!). These images should greatly help you judge the overall condition of the magazine, and the contents page lets you know exactly what articles and stories are contained in this particular issue. Please know that these magazines are sealed in bags and are ready for shipping, and we cannot answer any questions about them or look through them for you, so please bid (or do not bid) based on the images we have provided.

Condition: good. Note that we have attempted to check to see if the magazine is complete and uncut, and we believe that it is. However, there is a slight possibility that we might have missed a small cut or a page that was neatly removed, and if that happens, you can return the magazine. We have solely provided an overall description of the condition of the magazine, but you can also refer to our super-sized images. Please bid (or not bid) based on that overall grade and by viewing the super-sized images.
