Note that most film buffs might assume this movie was a German production, given that its top star (Conrad Veidt) and its director (Paul Leni) were both major figures of silent German cinema, but in fact, it is a U.S. production made by Universal Pictures (although of course, it was released in Germany, as well as in all other European countries). Note that these stills were printed from the original plates, likely in the late 1950s or early 1960s and were used for the television re-releases of these movies, and while they are high quality, they are NOT originals from the 1920s. Be sure not to bid on these thinking they are from the 1920s, as they are NOT! Condition: very good. These 1970s RE-STRIKES are in pretty nice condition (see our images).
