Auction History Result 8a177 OLYMPIAD German program '38 Leni Riefenstahl's Olympic documentary, Hitler pictured! Date Sold 10/25/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage German Film Program (measures 6" x 8"; 4 pages) (Learn More) Olympia 1. Teil - Fest der Volker (released in the U.S. as "The Olympiad"), the 1938 Leni Riefenstahl (movie actress who became a director for Hitler and made "Triumph of the Will" and this film) German Olympic sports documentary featuring documentary footage of the Olympic events, which included the top athletes from Germany, but also from the other competing countries, including the black athletes from the U.S., most notably Jesse Owens and Ralph Metcalfe. Adolf Hitler appears in the movie, and there are additional sequences of athletes performing (some in the nude), which were filmed especially for this movie. Note that this documentary on the 1936 Berlin Olympics was so massive that it was released in two parts (the first part was "Olympia Part I: Festival of the Nations", and the second part was "Olympia Part II: Festival of Beauty"; so technically this movie should be referred to as "Festival of the Nations", but because most people know it under the title of "Olympia" or "Olympiad", we refer to it in that way). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" program for this German movie! Also note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 6-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front cover and the two other interior pages together and then turning it over and photographing the other three pages). This way, you see the entire program, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image. 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: good to very good. The program is smaller than most of the German programs we have sold, and instead of being four or eight pages, it is folded in thirds, to create six pages. The cover page has separated from the other pages, and the program was folded across the middle at one time and there are a few small stains around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
