The USC Cinema and Television Library received the collection of the periodical, Film-Kurier.
The collection consists predominantly of theater, cabaret, opera, and movie programs, 1929-1937, from European German-speaking
countries along with a small number from New York City and Prague, Czechoslovakia. The largest number is from Berlin, but
other German towns, as well as Vienna and Zurich, are represented. Also included is a small number of German film magazines.
The programs reflect cultural life in both the last years of the Weimar Republic and the early years of Nazi rule.
