Original Vintage Theatrical Swedish Linenbacked Movie Poster (measures 23" x 35") (Learn More) Das indische Grabmal erster Teil - Die Sendung des Yoghi (released in the U.S. as "Above All Law"; also released as "The Indian Tomb: Part I - The Mission of the Yogi"), the 1921 Joe May German silent mystic fantasy adventure thriller sequel (screenplay by Fritz Lang from the novel by Thea von Harbou) starring Conrad Veidt, Mia May, Olaf Fonss, Erna Morena, Bernhard Goetzke, and Lya De Putti. The movie was was a sequel to "Das indische Grabmal zweiter Teil - Der Tiger von Eschnapur" (The Tiger of Eschnapur), made earlier the same year. Note that in 1938, after Lang and von Harbou split (with Lang going to America and von Harbou staying in Germany), both novels by von Harbou were remade, and they were directed by Richard Eichberg. Note that in 1959, in a very odd turn, Fritz Lang directed remakes of both 1938 movies, so obviously he did not bear ill will against his ex-wife (and author of both novels), Thea von Harbou!

It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them! Condition: fine. There is the most minor of restoration around the edges of the poster.. Most of the linenbacked posters we sell were restored by the finest professionals. An expertly linenbacked poster will often appear "mint", as its defects have been made to "vanish". We are the only seller we are aware of who always tries to describe the condition of the poster prior to being linenbacked, so you are fully aware of what restoration was performed.
