Note that this was a Nazi propaganda movie, designed to instill a sense of honor into the current generation of young men, so they would fight for the Nazi cause. It does not appear that this movie was made either a conditional or forbidden movie after World War II, perhaps because it is set in World War I and there are not really Nazi elements. Note that this movie was released in the U.S., but only in an un-subtitled non-dubbed version, for German speaking audiences. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Artist: Eric Rohman Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It has some patches of discoloration, creases and tears of varying lengths around the edges (see our image). There is a large diagonal crease at lower left. It is otherwise "all there" and after proper restoration the very rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
