An Original Vintage Theatrical French Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 8 1/2" x 10 3/4" [22 x 27 cm]; 25 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.

This definitely is a pressbook and not a program book, because it has information for ordering the posters at the back, it just does not include images of them.

Also note that this French pressbook is complete and uncut!
