An Original 1947 (from the very first Military Government release of this movie in Germany) Vintage German Film Program (measures 6" x 8 1/4" [15 x 21 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Ziegfeld Girl, the 1941 Robert Z. Leonard & Busby Berkeley breaking-into-show-business New York City Broadway theater stage romantic gambling musical ("Greatest musical extravaganza of all time!"; about three beautiful young women who get jobs working as showgirls for the famous Flo Ziegfeld, and the movie tracks their private lives, which are very different and very complicated) starring James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart), Judy Garland, Hedy Lamarr, Lana Turner, Edward Everett Horton, Tony Martin, Jackie Cooper, Ian Hunter, Charles Winninger, Philip Dorn, Al Shean, Eve Arden, and Leslie Brooks (uncredited in her first movie as one of the Ziegfeld Girls!). Note that MGM was famous for having "more stars than there were in Heaven", and because they were under contract by the week rather than by the movie, they could put them into multiple movies each year. How rare is it for a single Hollywood movie to have three female stars who became superstars (in this case, Judy Garland, Hedy Lamarr, and Lana Turner), and of course, Jimmy Stewart also became a superstar!

Important Added Info: Note that this program is from a special series of showings of American movies in the "American Zone" of West Germany beginning in 1945, and running for the next three years or so. Each of these special programs have "Published with approval of Military Government" printed on the back. In 1946, West Germany began having regular showings of American movies, and the same movies that were shown in these special showings between 1945 and 1948 were again shown beginning in 1946, so there would be two different programs for each of these movies, one like this, and one "regular" program issued later. Note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 4-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and the interior two pages together). This way, you see the entire program, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image. But of course this means that the front cover appears in the top right of our image, but normally, the program would be folded down the center and you would view the cover by itself (and it will be sent folded as was originally intended). Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
