An Original Vintage Theatrical German Movie Poster (measures 34 3/4" x 54 1/4" [89 x 138 cm]) (Learn More) Ein Madel von der Reeperbahn (literally translates to "A Girl from the Reeperbahn"), the 1930 Karl Anton Czechoslovakian/German musical romantic love triangle melodrama (about a man and his wife who live on an island with a lighthouse, along with an assistant, but then a pretty young girl who is the sole survivor of a shipwreck shows up on the island and creates much turmoil) starring Olga Tschechowa, Trude Berliner, Hans Adalbert Schlettow (billed as "H.A.V. Schlettow"), Josef Rovensky (billed as "J. Rovensky"), and Manfred Koempel-Pilot (billed as "Andre Pilot"). Note that the Reeperbahn is a famous (and infamous) entertainment red light district in Hamburg, Germany. It appears this movie was never released in the U.S. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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: Note that this is a very rare "country of origin" poster from Germany from before World War II, which we have never auctioned before! 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. Note that this poster has been mounted onto a "Chartex"-like material (we are not 100% certain it is Chartex, but if not, it is something very similar. Chartex is a backing paper that is a linen-like paper, similar to the material you line drawers with. It serves its function well in that the poster is preserved, which is why many restorers other than movie poster restorers use it, but it is very difficult to impossible to remove from the back of the poster. SO DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU CAN ACCEPT THAT IT LIKELY CAN'T BE REMOVED FROM ITS BACKING, AND WILL NEED TO BE KEPT AS IT IS (although it is not harming the poster, and it enables it to be displayed). Condition: fair to good. The horizontal folds in the poster have "returned", both in the poster and the Chartex backing. There is a large "Ton-Film" snipe glued to the bottom left. The poster was mounted onto "Chartex" (see above) with no restoration. It has excess Chartex at the top and bottom. It almost surely can't be removed from the backing, but it can certainly be displayed as it is. DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU CAN ACCEPT THAT IT LIKELY CAN'T BE REMOVED FROM ITS BACKING, AND WILL NEED TO BE KEPT AS IT IS (although it is not harming the poster, and it enables it to be displayed).
