An Original Vintage Theatrical Uruguayan Movie Herald (measures 4" x 5 3/4" [10 x 15 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Wolga Wolga (released in the U.S. in 1933 as "Volga Volga"), the 1928 Viktor Tourjansky German silent romantic melodrama starring Hans Adalbert Schlettow, Lillian Hall-Davis, Boris de Fast, Rudolf Klein-Rogge, George Seroff, and Gustle Gstettenbaur. Note that this was one of several movies that produced Joseph N. Ermolieff made in Germany. Ermolieff was a major Russian film producer at the dawn of film making right after the Russian Revolution, starting in 1916, but he fell out of favor with the government, and he went to France, where he lived and produced movies (and he made several in Germany as well). In 1936, he had a major success worldwide with "The Czar's Courier", and he moved to the U.S. in 1937, intending to make an English language version of that movie, but unfortunately, that was not made, and he had almost no success in America, just producing a few movies in America and Mexico, a sad end to one of the forgotten major producers of Russian movies in the late 1910s.

Important Added Info: Please note that Uruguayan heralds, like Spanish heralds, were printed in large quantities, and then sent to individual theaters in Uruguay, and they would have the backs of them overprinted or stamped with their theater name and specific play dates. But because a movie might play in Uruguay for a period of a year or two (traveling from theater to theater), there is no guarantee that the date overprinted on the back of the herald is the same as the date that the herald was first printed (and the date that the movie first played in Uruguay). We strongly suspect that most movies did not reach Uruguay until a year or two after their first release in other countries, but we can't say for certain. Therefore, we don't list the date overprinted on the back of a herald as the date of the herald (or the date of the movie's first release in Uruguay) unless we know from some other source that the later year was when the movie first played in Uruguay. If it is important to you that the date on the herald is the same date as when the movie first played in its country of origin, then please look at our image of the back of this herald to see if there is a different date printed on it.
