An Original 1939 (from the first release of this movie in Germany) Vintage German Film Program (measures 8 3/4" x 11 1/2" [22 x 29 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) Scipione L'Africano (literally translates to "Scipio the African"), the 1937 Carmine Gallone Italian sword-and-sandal historical war melodrama starring Annibale Ninchi (in the title role as Publius Cornelius Scipio), Camillo Pilotto (as Hannibal), Fosco Giachetti, Francesca Braggiotti, and Marcello Giorda. This movie deals with the legendary Roman battles against Hannibal, and Scipio was ultimately victorious. This project was championed by the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, and had Italy had a great director in 1937, this might have been an epic masterpiece, but all the wonderful directors fled both Italy and Germany, refusing to work under a fascist dictatorship, with the notable exception of Leni Riefenstahl. Note that the IMDb says that this movie had a U.S. release in 1939, but we have never seen any poster from that release, so we wonder if that is accurate. If anyone knows more about this, 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 provided an image of four of the pages of this 8-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and two of the interior pages together). You can see the four of the 8 pages, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image, but realize that there are 4 pages you are not seeing. 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. Learn More about condition grades
