An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Danish Movie Poster (measures 23 1/4" x 35" [59 x 89 cm]) (Learn More) Dornenweg einer Furstin (literally translated to "Thorn Path of a Princess"), the 1928 Nikolai Larin & Boris Nevolin German/Russian silent historical melodrama (a biography of Rasputin, the "Mad Monk" who gained control over the royal family of Russia, and no doubt helped bring about the Russian Revolution that ended their reign) starring Vladimir Gajdarov, Suzanne Delmas, Gregori Chmara (as Rasputin), Hans Albers, and Fritz Alberti. Note that the world was fascinated by the story of Rasputin, and one year after his death in 1916, there were two different U.S. movies telling his story! In 1926, there was a German movie, and in 1928, there were three different movies, one from the U.S., one German/U.S. co-production, and this one which was a German/Russian co-production (and it probably did not play in the U.S., because there was a similar U.S. movie released by William Fox at the same time). Through the years, Rasputin has continued to be a very popular subject for movies, and there have been some 42 movies telling his wild story. 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.

There were pinholes and tears around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
