Schuster English historical horse racing sports gambling musical romantic love triangle melodrama ("In Natural Technicolor"; "In new perfected Technicolor"; this was the first "major" film to be shot in Ireland; a wild story of a gypsy woman who marries an Irish lord in 1889, but when he dies, his family exiles her back to Spain, and 48 years later, in the then present day, she returns with her beautiful granddaughter, who has a romance with a handsome young horse trainer, but she has a fiance back in Spain, and then the fiance shows up to win her back) starring Annabella, Henry Fonda, Leslie Banks, Stewart Rome, Harry Tate, Irene Vanbrugh, Steve Donoghue (billed as "world-famous jockey Steve Donoghue"), John McCormack (billed as "Presenting the world-famous tenor John McCormack"), and D.J. Williams. Note that John McCormack was at that time considered Ireland's greatest tenor. He had starred in a movie in 1930, when he was 46, but after that, he only appeared in this movie (as himself), and he makes a brief appearance in "Citizen Kane" as the man singing at the Philadelphia Inquirer party!

Important Added Info: Note that this program was published by Das Programm von Heute, a different type of program that is far more rare than the regularly seen German programs. The program has six pages, but it is printed on a large single sheet that is tri-folded (we have photographed both sides of the program completely unfolded). Note that included with the program is a 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" "Ross autograph card" that has a picture of director Leni Riefenstahl on it (Ross autograph cards were sent to theaters where the stars would make personal appearances, and members of the audience would get the stars to autograph them if they could, but of course, the cards themselves did not come autographed!). The theaters would cut four slits in the upper left of the front cover and insert the "autograph card" into that area, and this is in no way a defect (and actually it is quite rare to find the programs with the "autograph card" still attached!). Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
