An Original Vintage German Film Program (measures 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) Togger, the 1937 Jurgen von Alten German romantic love triangle melodrama (the movie is on the conditional list because of "distorted" values and anti-Semitism) starring Renate Muller, Paul Hartmann (in the title role as Chefredakteur Togger), Mathias Wieman, Heinz Salfner, and Hilde Seipp. Note that this is a "conditional" movie. This refers to around 40 movies that were made in Germany between 1933 and 1945, during the time the Nazis were in power in Germany. These movies are considered to be propaganda movies, which glorify the Nazi regime and their ideals. Immediately after World War II, a list of over 100 movies that were made between 1933 and 1945 was created, and those movies were not allowed to be shown at any time in Germany or Austria. Over the next decade, around 60 of those movies were taken off the list so that they are allowed to be shown (but rarely are), and those movies are known as "forbidden movies", because even though they can now be shown, they could not be shown at all in the years right after World War II. The remaining 40 or so movies (including this one) are known as "conditional" movies, because they are still not allowed to be shown in Germany or Austria, even in the present day, with the sole exception being when they are shown in an educational context, like at a university, and a speaker talks before and after the movie. Note that Renate Muller was a leading German actress of the late 1920s (at the same time that Marlene Dietrich rose to stardom), and she is perhaps best remembered for her starring role in the original German version of "Victor/Victoria", and for her starring role in 1931's "Sunshine Susie", after which she was referred to as "The Sunshine Susie Girl". Unlike Dietrich, she did not leave Germany in the early 1930s, and resisted appearing in Nazi based productions, which caused her to fall in disfavor with the German film industry. She died under mysterious circumstances in 1937, having either accidentally fallen out of a third story window, been pushed, or committed suicide (depending on which version of her death you read).

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 eight pages, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image, but realize that there are four 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: very good. The program was folded down the middle at one time. Learn More about condition grades
