An Original Vintage Autographed German 3 1/2" x 5 1/4" [9 x 13 cm] Postcard (Learn More) Harry Liedtke was a Prussian-born (in what is now Russia) character actor from the 1910s to the 1940s. Some of his movies include: Arme Eva Maria, Nanon, and Liebe in Uniform. He passed away in 1945 at the age of 62, when Russian soldiers invaded Brandenburg. He was murdered by Russian soldiers when trying to save a woman (accounts differ as to if it was his wife or someone he sheltered) from being raped by the invading army. Important Added Info: Note that this postcard has been personally autographed (signed) by Harry Liedtke! Note that this is from a remarkable collection of 26 items (mostly postcards and German Ross postcards) we were consigned from the estate of the late Jan Wahl. Mr. Wahl wrote over 100 children's books and received many awards, including the Coretta Scott King Prize. Throughout his career, he had a great love of silent film, and he collected many items from silent films, including the 26 items we are currently auctioning. Some of them are framed, because they were on the walls of Mr. Wahl's house! Finally, note that this does not come with a certificate of authenticity, but given the fact that Mr. Wahl purchased this item decades ago, and given that he was an expert in such items, we think it is incredibly likely the signature is authentic. This is a rare opportunity to purchase autographed items from great silent film stars that have a wonderful provenance! As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
