Alexander Golling (1905-1989) arrived on the theatrical and film scene in Germany at the dawn of the Nazi era and was an enthusiastic supporter of the new order. Under directors like Veit Harlan, Wolfgang Liebeneiner, and Karl Ritter Golling thrived. After the war he suffered the usual five years of blacklisting before returning to the screen.

this lot consists of a genuine German cigarette premium issued between about 1930 and 1937. German cigarette cards and premiums make an interesting and inexpensive addition to any collection. The Nazi government of Germany opposed smoking and eventually put an end to cigarette cards. As a result, the native German card collecting hobby never developed to the extent of that in Britain or the United States. Most German premiums and cards cost only a fraction of what might be expected from their American and British cousins.
