Das amerikanische Theater und Kino

(no dust jacket) [front hinge cracked but not separated, some bumping/softening at corners, slight fraying (exposure of board) at top front corner]. (47 color + 459 B&W photos/illustrations) A largely pictorial survey (with all text and captions in German) of the American theatre and cinema scene of the day. Following short introductory essays of about 50 pages each (Gregor on the theatre, Flp-Miller on the movies), the remaining two-thirds of the book (about 225 pages) is devoted to illustrations, usually no more than two to a page. Many are photographs, but a substantial number (particular of those that are in color) are reproductions of stage designs, costume drawings, and the like; there's even a storyboard-type page from the Walt Disney/Mickey Mouse cartoon STEAMBOAT WILLIE. All are very well reproduced, and even if you don't know the language the book is a visual delight to flip through. **** NOTE that additional shipping charges will be requested for international shipping of this heavy book, or for Priority Mail service to U.S. destinations.
