LILIAN HARVEY : PRETTY ACTRESS : EROTIC POSE : RISQUE : NEW YEARS EVE: RARE RPPC

Description: This vintage real photo postcard features Anglo-German actress and singer, Lillian Harvey (1906-1968). She is posed in a provocative pose and is holding a glass of champagne. She is wearing a fancy and risque dress and a garter. She is showing a "lot of leg" in this photograph. The glass of bubbly and the streamers hanging from the ceiling indicate that she is probably celebrating New Years Eve. It is clear that the aim of the photographer was to emphasize Miss Harvey’s sexuality. The photographer and Miss Harvey succeeded in accomplishing this goal. Her acting base was in Germany. Harvey was born in Hornsey, England to an English mother and a German father. During World War I her family was “trapped” in Magdeburg, Germany and Harvey was sent to live with her Swiss aunt. After the war she finished school in Berlin and than studied voice and dance at the Berlin State Opera. In 1924 she earned a role as a revue dancer in Vienna. This was followed by her first movie role which was in an Austrian film named “The Curse”. Thereafter, she starred in multiple silent films. In the 1930’s Harvey’s films appeared in both German and English and she became popular outside of Germany. She went to Hollywood and made four movies for the Fox Film Corporation. In 1935, Harvey returned to Germany. She appeared in several more films and soon she was under the watchful eye of the Gestapo. Harvey had many Jewish friends in the film industry and she was supportive of them. By 1939, Miss Harvey was forced to leave Germany, leaving behind valuable real estate holdings. She went to France where, in 1940, she made two movies for director Jean Boyer. When southern France was occupied by the Nazis in 1942, she emigrated to the United States. During the war she did some theatre acting and also worked as a home-side volunteer nurse. After the war, Harvey relocated to Paris. This postcard was published by the German firm Ross Verlag and was part of a series (no. 3035/4). UFA and Eichberg Films are credited on the bottom right hand corner of the image. Richard Eichberg (1888-1952) began his career as an actor but became a succssful film director and producer in the German film industry. He directed 87 films and produced 77 films. This card is unused. This vintage postcard is in excellent condition (see scans).
