A special note about the programs contained in this auction
     Over the past few years, we have offered collections of German and Austrian programs, which were some of the best collections imaginable, because the collectors who put them together were trying to get as many of the highlights of German cinema (and the world's cinema) from all years.
     We THOUGHT that we would never get another collection like those, but now we have been consigned one that is similar to those past ones! It has quite a few of the same programs we have auctioned in the past, but it also contains some that we have NEVER auctioned before! This one has a very wide range, covering all the decades from the 1920s to the present, and there are programs not only from Germany, but also from other countries (see below).
     Note that while 441 of the programs we are auctioning are from Germany (and we have divided them into four sections, depending on the years; see our chart above), there are also lots from Austria, East Germany, Denmark, and a few ultra-rare ones from England and Iceland. Note that Germany and Austria were completely separate until Hitler annexed Austria, and they were again separate right after World War II. There are differences between the programs from the two countries, most notably the sizes, and we clearly identify which of the two countries each program is from. Of course, East Germany became its own country after World War II, and at first they did not show "western movies", but starting in the 1950s they did, and this collection includes a nice selection of those programs as well.
     Also note that there were two entirely different major companies that made programs in Germany (and there were a few smaller companies over the years). Both of these companies made programs right when the movies first came out, and the programs from the same movies usually look entirely different from each other. In a few cases, we have two programs from the same movie that are from the different companies, and both are first release.
     This auction also contains lots of programs from Denmark, which are similar to the German and Austrian programs, except they are smaller (we always note the exact sizes of the programs on each auction). This is a wonderful opportunity to get original first release movie paper on titles where you never ever see any first release items offered for sale (or if you do, they are priced so high that they are beyond the reach of all but the wealthiest of collectors)!

Important note about "conditional" & "forbidden" German movies
Immediately after the end of World War II, a list of around 100 Nazi-made movies was created, and it was decreed that those movies (called "forbidden" movies) could NEVER be shown again, due to their Nazi propaganda content (the most famous of these are the anti-Semitic ones, like JUD SUSS and THE ETERNAL JEW). Over the next decade, the list was re-examined, and it was narrowed down to around 40 movies. At that time, it was decided that the other 60 or so movies could now be shown, but those 40 remaining movies were declared "conditional" movies, meaning they are forbidden to be shown in Germany or Austria, even in the present day, with the sole exception being when they are shown in an educational context, like at a university, and a speaker talks before and after the movie. The collection we are auctioning includes many programs from movies that are on solely the "conditional" list, as well as programs from movies that are not "conditional", but are on the "forbidden" list, and also a very few programs from movies that are not on either list, but which likely should have been on one or the other! In every case, we have clearly noted on the auction which list the movie is on.

About the condition of the items
Note that we give a detailed overall condition grade to every item we sell ("fine", "very good to fine", "very good", "good to very good", and "good", with only a few graded "fair" or lesser) along with more details about the condition described in words (but pretty much a general description of the defects, and we only describe specific defects if they are the type that CAN'T be seen in our super-sized images, or if the item is especially valuable). We felt this would help bidders identify items they want to bid on more easily. Of course, we still strongly recommend that you look at our super-sized image to see the extent of the defects that we describe and to examine the poster for minor defects that we did NOT describe. Of course, with the items that have many pages, we could not photograph every single page, but we often photograph both covers and an interior two-page spread, which should surely give you an excellent idea of the overall condition of that item.


U.S. Shipping Details

U.S. buyers need to enclose $7 or $11 shipping (which includes full insurance), no matter how many items you purchase from this set of auctions! NOTE: Our $7 or $11 flat rate shipping is good for three weeks. If you haven't paid within three weeks, you will then be quoted the actual cost of shipping when you request it.
Missouri customers: You must pay an additional 7.162% sales tax on your purchases. If your order is sent within the state of Missouri, we MUST collect this tax (if it is shipped to another state, we do not collect the tax).

Will your order be shipped to you by UPS?
UPS does NOT automatically require a signature to deliver packages, so if you want the signature to be required, you will need to pay the extra $3.00 UPS charges for "signature required" Delivery Confirmation, and please realize that they will then NOT leave the package, and you may well have to go to the UPS facility yourself to pick it up. But if you prefer this, that is fine, and if you have any other special requirements, please tell us when you are paying for your order.
IF YOU DO NOT SPECIFY THAT YOU WANT SIGNATURE REQUIRED, THEN YOUR PACKAGE WILL BE SENT WITHOUT SIGNATURE REQUIRED!


You CAN usually combine shipment!

NOTE: These Sunday items need to be sent in flat packages so...
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COMBINING: Flat rate shipping is good for 3 weeks worth of purchases. If you win items over a span of more than 21 days, you will then be charged the actual cost of shipping plus $3 for packing materials.

*they can be combined with these auctions (NOTE: In the event you win items of two different shipping rates [such as $7 and $11], you will pay the higher of the two):

Sunday September 8th "folded" posters & lobby cards in Part IV of September Major Auction
Thursday September 12th single lobby cards
Thursday September 19th vintage 8" x 10" stills in lots of 2 or more
Tuesday September 24th folded one-sheets
Sunday September 29th vintage single 8" x 10" stills
Tuesday October 1st window cards, pressbooks, & misc. oversized items
Tuesday October 8th folded one-sheets
Thursday October 10th French & Italian one-panels & other sizes

*they must be sent separately from these auctions for an additional shipping charge:

Tuesday September 3rd linenbacked posters in Part II of September Major Auction
Thursday September 5th "rolled" posters in Part III of September Major Auction
Sunday September 8th paperbacked items in Part IV of September Major Auction
Sunday September 15th rolled one-sheets
Tuesday September 17th rolled non-U.S. posters
Sunday September 22nd bulk lots
Thursday September 26th inserts & half-sheets
Thursday October 3rd rolled one-sheets

Note that we not only allow you to combine as many items as you want from a single set of Tuesday, Thursday, and/or Sunday auctions, and still pay only a single shipping charge for all of the items, but we also allow you to wait until the next three weeks of auctions end (a total of up to eight sets of auctions) so that you can combine your current purchases with those of our following auctions (if possible), and that means there is a chance you could combine items from up to eight of our sets of auctions, and still pay only a single shipping charge (assuming those items fit into the same type of package, but of course, there is a limit to how many items can fit in a single package or tube, and if you end up with several packages, you will need to pay that many shipping charges). We KNOW there are other sellers who charge a little less on shipping than we do, but we know that our packaging is the best there is, and our orders virtually never arrive damaged (and on the very rare times that they do, all our U.S. packages are fully insured, and FULL INSURANCE IS INCLUDED IN THE U.S. SHIPPING CHARGE).

DON'T BID ON OUR ITEMS UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE $7 or $11 U.S. SHIPPING!


Non-U.S. Shipping Details

Non-U.S. buyers must pay the actual cost of shipping their order (you can choose whatever method you prefer, but know that the U.S. Post Office has eliminated Surface Mail, so we can only send via Express or Airmail), plus $3 for the best packaging materials you have ever seen. All non-U.S. buyers must tell us if they want the package sent insured or uninsured at the time they pay for their order.

PLEASE KNOW THAT ALL OF THE BOOKS & AUCTION CATALOGS ARE HEAVY (some extremely heavy!), SO BEAR THIS IN MIND BEFORE PLACING BIDS ON THEM IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE U.S.

Have you heard about our Pay and Hold Program?
This lets non-U.S. buyers pay for their purchases from 6 consecutive weeks (a total of 15 auctions and around 12,000+ items!), and we then send all your purchases at once saving you LOTS of money! Click HERE to learn more (if you are not one of the hundreds of our non-U.S. buyers who are already part of this program).

Learn more about how to save money on shipping by shipping to friends/family in the U.S., insurance, and customs fees.

Here is a chart containing estimated shipping charges for up to 3 items from this set of  auctions
NOTE:
These are ESTIMATES only, and your actual shipping may be more or less than these estimates.
ALSO NOTE:
Insurance will increase the cost of shipping by $1.60 for each $100 of insurance.

Type of Shipping Canada/Mexico Australian/Asia/Japan Everywhere Else (inc Europe)
Priority Mail Int'l - Uninsured $29.93 / $36.58 $43.14 $45.47

Priority Mail Express Int'l - Uninsured

$40.49 / $46.10 $50.84 $51.90
First Class (under 4 lbs ONLY) $14.70 / $21.32 $25.59 $25.59

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please bear these approximate shipping cost in mind BEFORE you place a bid (if you live outside the U.S.). The vast majority of our customers want a very securely packed tube, and will pay the extra shipping cost involved (and of course, it goes to the Post Office or UPS, and not us!). Please do not ask us to pack less securely, as that would likely result in a damaged order.
Some sellers are sending by Ground UPS to Canada, but that incurs large "brokerage fees", so we do not recommend it. Note that there are also some sellers sending non-U.S. packages via a "Letter" rate, but of course this is not legal, and we can not do this. We have outlined the possibilities for sending non-U.S. packages above, so please read that carefully, BEFORE placing a bid!

DON'T BID ON OUR ITEMS UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE ACTUAL COST OF SHIPPING (the actual cost of shipping plus $3 outside the U.S.)!


You Can Add More to Your Order
In addition to our current auctions, we offer many other non-auction items. Please note that the items in this set of auctions will be sent in flat packages, so you can add any item that can also be sent in flat packages for little or no additional shipping costs (NOTE: if we can add it to your package without raising the cost of shipping, then we will do so with no added shipping charge, but if it raises the cost then you will need to pay the difference). We have noted below whether the items can be shipped rolled or not.
