An Original Vintage One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh) (Learn More)

Die Herrin Der Welt 1. Teil - Die Freundin Des Gelben Mannes (released in the U.S. in 1922 as "Mistress of the World: The Dragon's Claw"), the 1919 Joseph Klein & Joe May German silent China adventure thriller starring Michael Bohnen, Lewis Brody, Nien Soen Ling, Mia May, and Henry Sze. Note that this movie was made in Germany, and is widely considered to be the first "epic" German film ever made! It was released in eight parts in Germany (but was released in the United States by Paramount in four parts, combining two of the parts in each section). The plot of the movie is really wild. It seems that the Queen of Sheba gave King Solomon a treasure that ended up in China, and there is a map that leads to the treasure. A Danish woman answers an advertisement and goes to China to be a governess (just like in "The King and I"), but she is kidnapped when she gets there, and is forced to be a prostitute (not like "The King and I"!). She has many adventures, including meeting "The Rabbi of Kuan-Fu" (we are not sure what a rabbi was doing in China at this time), and the rabbi has the treasure map, but he dies before he can fully explain. After many more adventures, the young Danish woman finds the treasure and becomes the richest woman in the world, and sets out to "rule the world" (shades of "The Count of Monte Cristo"). She also seeks revenge against people who have wronged her.
