An Original 1925 (from the first release of this movie in Germany) Vintage German Film Program (measures 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) Daughters of Pleasure, the 1924 William Beaudine silent romantic melodrama (based on the novel by Caleb Proctor; about a man who comes into wealth, and he has a wife and grown daughter, and he has an affair with a pretty young Frenchwoman, played by Clara Bow, and she turns out to be a friend of his daughter's, but later, the husband begs forgiveness from his wife and she forgives him) starring Marie Prevost, Monte Blue, Clara Bow (very early in her career, in one of her first substantial roles, three years before she became the "It Girl"), Edythe Chapman, and Wilfred Lucas. Note that this film is partially "lost" (only 4 of the 6 reels survive). Also note that Clara Bow was the most famous "flapper girl" of the mid to late 1920s (she became known as "The It Girl" after the character she played based on the popular novel by Elinor Glyn). She had a major role in Wings, and was Paramount's biggest star at that time. But she had a notorious private life and seemingly "settled down" when she married cowboy star Rex Bell in 1931 (she had two children and she retired from movies), but sadly in 1949 she went into a mental institution after a failed suicide attempt (she had had psychiatric issues for quite some time) and she was released but never returned to her family, and lived alone until her death in 1965. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that German programs from the early 1920s are INCREDIBLY scarce, especially from major movies. This is almost certainly because of the great paper shortages in Germany during World War II, during which all earlier paper was recycled, which means virtually no pre-World War II German paper survives. Also note that we have pictured the front cover, and two interior 2-page spreads from this program. Condition: good to very good. The program was once in a bound volume and it was slightly trimmed on the top and bottom, and there is tiny paper loss in several places in the spine, where it was once attached to the bound volume (but it only affects blank white paper).
