Date Sold 12/13/2009Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1950 (from the first release of this movie in Germany) Vintage German Film Program (measures 7 1/4" x 10 1/2"; 4 pages) (Learn More) Harlem (also released as "Knock Out"), the 1943 Carmine Gallone Italian New York City boxing sports romantic crime melodrama starring Massimo Girotti, Amedeo Nazzari, Vivi Gioi, Elisa Cegani, Osvaldo Valenti, and Erminio Spalla. Apparently this was an Italian movie made during World War II that is rabidly anti-American, and it is set in New York City's Harlem, and it shows an America that is filled with racists, and the central subject matter concerns an Italian boxer and black African American boxers. Apparently the filmmakers hired real boxers for the boxing sequences, including Primo Carnera, the champion boxer/wrestler, which made those scenes much more authentic. The movie sounds fascinating and historically important. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have never seen or heard of a single item from this movie before (not surprising because it was made in Italy during World War II, and because it was anti-American, and may well have only played in Italy and Germany). Also note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 4-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and the interior two pages together). 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: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
