Advertisement poster for a film starring Emil Jannings in "Eden" cinema. S. Shoshani Printing press [1930s].
A nice color illustration of actors Emil Jannings and Marlene Dietrich, most probably toward the screening of the 1930 film "The Blue Angel", directed by Josef von Sternberg. Above the illustration appears the inscription "'Eden' cinema…Saturday night…during weekdays, A. Fox Newsreel dubbed, B. Emil Jannings".
The film "The Blue Angel" marked the transition of German films from silent movies to talking films and brought Marlene Dietrich international fame. Emil Jannings, Dietrich’s co-star, won the first Best Actor Oscar award. 68.5X124.5 cm (two parts pasted together). Fair condition. Folding marks and creases. Tears, mainly at margins. Ink stamp. Linen-backed (Upper and lower parts are detached slightly from cloth).
