CONRAD VEIDT
German b/w picture postcard of actor Conrad Vedit in a suit and tie, signed and dated in 1924. Veidt is best remembered in the U. S. for playing Major Strasser in Casablanca.
Picture postcard signed "Conrad Veidt/1924". B/w, 3¼x5¼ overall, 3x4½ image, one surface. Captioned: "Conrad Veidt". Photo by Atelier Hanni Schwartz, Berlin, Germany. Published by Verlag "Ross" (Ross Publishing House), Berlin, Germany. Veidt (1893-1943), born Hans Walter Konrad Veidt, was a star of German silent films, including The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) and Different from the Others (1919), a pioneering gay rights film with Veidt as the gay protagonist. Veidt fled Germany in 1933 with his Jewish wife. (He had also named himself as Jewish on German questionnaires as a form of protest) Veidt found a new niche in British and American films, playing the very kind of German he detested. Veidt's probably best remembered in the U. S. as Major Strasser in Casablanca (1942). His other English-language film appearances included The Spy in Black (1937) and Nazi Agent (1942). He died of a sudden heart attack in 1943, during a round of golf. Lightly toned and bowed. Signature has low contrast but is legible. Irregular bottom right corner. Lightly creased top right corner. Lightly soiled and stained on verso (no show-through). Otherwise in fine condition.
