Vintage original 3.5 x 5.25 in. German postcard depicting the beautiful German-born silent film actress and screenwriter, LOTTE NEUMANN.
 
She is depicted in a publicity shot wearing a shimmering dress with a matching hat and a large strand of pearls while holding an ornate feathered fan. This postcard was inscribed in green ink by Lotte Neumann in, we believe, 1926 (see additional details below). Printed in Germany, this vintage original "country of origin" postcard is unused in very fine- condition with a small light 1.25 in. horizontal scratch in the bottom right corner of the background area and a light 0.75 in. horizontal scratch just to the left of her image in the lower portion of the background area.
 
Provenance: Approximately 8 years ago, we purchased a collection of two albums of vintage original German postcards from a rare book dealer at an antiquarian book fair in Pasadena, California (see photos). Approximately half of the postcards were signed by the respective personalities and the ones that were dated by the actors are all dated "1926." We were informed by the dealer that these photographs came from a film collector in Germany who acquired the postcards at the time they were issued and then had them signed by the respective actors when he met them in person. We are now pleased to make these vintage original postcards available to other collectors.
