An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Behind the German Lines, the 1928 German silent World War I (WWI) documentary ("Actually photographed on the battlefields of the Great War."; it was a combination of lots of actual wartime newsreel footage, with a few studio shot scenes to bridge in between the newsreel footage). In 1928, UFA, the giant German film company, made a 3-part film called "The World War as Seen Through German Spectacles" (each part was 2 hours long, and apparently it was released in the U.S. in 5 parts that same year). That series was done with the cooperation of the German government, and therefore, it was very pro-German, presenting the "German view" of World War I. Later that same year, UFA followed that up with this movie, but this documentary was not sanctioned by the government, so it gave a more even view of the war. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that movie paper from the first UFA documentary seems to be virtually nonexistent (we have never auctioned any), and movie paper from this second UFA documentary is almost as rare (we have auctioned a single half-sheet and a single window card, and nothing else)! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned two examples of the same half-sheet from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this window card (which is the one referred to above)! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
