ublished 1930 by Universal Music Co. of NYC. Items published by small or obscure Publishing Companies have a lower circulation / printing run ... rendering those pieces RARE. This is 1 of 3 copies of this piece I've seen in 50 years of collecting. I would consider it Rare & historically important from a Film History standpoint. The movie was released by Universal Studios.

The book / movie was anti-war / pacifist in sentiment, therfore banned by the Hitler / Nazi regime. The movie was nominated for 4 Oscars / Academy Awards ... winning for BEST PICTURE / Outstanding Production - Carl Laemmle Jr.; & a win for BEST DIRECTOR - Lewis Milestone. Also nominated for ... BEST WRITING, & BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY. The movie was re-made in 1979 by Delbert Mann for TV, starring Richard Thomas & Ernest Borgnine.
