An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) Die Weisse Holle vom Piz Palu (released in the U.S. in 1930 as "The White Hell of Pitz Palu"), the 1929 Arnold Fanck (billed as "Arnold Fauck") & G.W. Pabst (Georg Wilhelm Pabst) silent German mountain climbing search melodrama starring Leni Riefenstahl, Gustav Diessl, Ernst Petersen, Ernst Udet, and Mizzi Goetzel. Note that some of the action mountain climbing footage from this movie was re-used in several movies by Universal, most impressively in the serial "Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe". Note that Arnold Fanck was a German director who loved skiing and made many "mountain films" that included skiing sequences. In this movie, he was teamed with one of the greatest directors of all time, G.W. Pabst! Also note that this was a silent movie made in 1929 and released in Germany in Austria at that time. In 1930, a dubbed sound version was released in the U.S., and in December 1935, a new "sound version" was given a major re-release in Germany (and it was released in Austria the following year).

Important Added Info: Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: fine. This glass slide is in really excellent condition, and we feel that EVERY collector would be happy to own it. It IS possible it may have an extremely MINOR defect or defects, but nothing at all significant. We bet many dealers would call items in this grade "mint" or "near mint"!
