An Original 1933 (from the first release of this movie in Denmark) Vintage Theatrical Folded Danish Movie Poster (measures 24 1/4" x 33 1/4" [62 x 84 cm]) (Learn More) Das blaue Licht (released in the U.S. as "Blue Light"), the 1932 Leni Riefestahl German mystery fantasy adventure melodrama (a heavily symbolic mystical story of a girl who lives in the German mountains, and there is one specific mountain that no one has ever been able to climb, and then she does, which causes her village to label her a witch, but she tells them of a cave filled with jewels at the top of the mountain, and they proceed to take all the jewels, which causes the girl to kill herself in protest) starring Leni Riefenstahl, Mathias Wieman, Beni Fuhrer, Max Holzboer, Martha Mair, and Franz Maldacea. Note that this movie is extremely historically significant! Leni Riefenstahl had been an actress in German movies since 1926, but after gaining notice in movies such as "The White Hell of Pitz Palu" in 1929, she was given the chance to both direct and star in this movie in 1932. Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels were very much impressed by the movie, and it was because of this movie that she was later hired by them to make first "Triumph of the Will" and then "Olympia".

Artist: Erik Frederiksen Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this Danish poster, which has wonderful art by the top Danish poster artist, Erik Frederiksen, and that was 10 years ago, when it sold for a remarkable $7,050! Not only that, but the only other items we have ever auctioned from this movie were programs from Germany and other countries, but no posters of any kind, and it makes sense that virtually no posters would survive, given that it is from a time when almost no European posters survive, due to the massive paper drives of World War II, caused by the paper shortages there. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. The poster has tiny paper loss at some crossfolds and minor wear on the folds. It has a tiny bit of paper loss in the top right circle area. It has two small circular brown stains in the extreme left of the solid black area, one in the upper part and one in the lower part. Otherwise, the poster is in pretty nice condition, and it has never had any sort of restoration! Learn More about condition grades
