An Original Vintage Austrian Film Program (measures 6" x 9" [15 x 23 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More)

The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu, the 1929 Rowland V. Lee China crime thriller ("Why did the sign of the dragon throw terror into their hearts?"; "Thrills - Mystery - Drama - Love"; "From the story by Sax Rohmer") starring Warner Oland (in the title role as Doctor Fu Manchu), Jean Arthur, Neil Hamilton, O.P. Heggie, William Austin, and Tully Marshall. Note that Jean Arthur seemed like a beautiful young starlet at this time, but actually, she was 29 years old and had been making movies for six years. But when audiences heard her very distinctive voice, she quickly became a star, and she was third billed in this movie! Also note that this was the first movie featuring Dr. Fu Manchu, created by Sax Rohmer, and played by Warner Oland, who would go on to have a successful career playing a very different Asian, Charlie Chan. The following year, Oland reprised his role in a sequel, "The Return of Dr. Fu Manchu". The following year brought "Daughter of the Dragon", with Anna May Wong playing Oland's daughter. That same year, Warner Oland made his first Charlie Chan movie, and without him, the series seemed over, but in 1932, Boris Karloff starred in "The Mask of Fu Manchu", and there have been a number of other Fu Manchu movies over the years since!

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of four of the pages of this 8-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and two of the interior pages together). You can see the four of the 8 pages, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image, but realize that there are 4 pages you are not seeing. But of course this means that the front cover appears in the top right of our image, but normally, the program would be folded down the center and you would view the cover by itself (and it will be sent folded as was originally intended).

Condition: fair to good.
