PORTRAIT RPPC AUREL NOVOTNY AUSTRIAN ACTOR 1908
| Seller: boyseeboy ( 3887 ) End Time: 2008-05-19 01:50:33 GMT Bids: 0 Current Price: $0.99 Location: Boise, Idaho Time Left: 0 Seconds |  | | For More Details: Click here | | DESCRIPTION: This is a real photo postcard portrait of Austrian actor Aurel Novotny, who must have worked with the Zurich State Theater in 1908. The text at bottom reads ‘Aurel Novotny – Zurcher Stadttheater’ in cursive script. The stamp in the lower right corner is for NPG, Neue Photographische Gesellschaft (New Photography Society), and the surrounding text identifies this with the date 1908. The rest tells the company name and its location, in the Steglitz suburb of Berlin. NPG was originally a club for serious amateurs that incorporated itself in 1899 as a business, bought out in 1928, then the name retired in 1948. They produced many cards of views, and series such as the one this belonged to (see my other 1908 NPG photo for the Zurcher Stadttheater of a tenor, Bernardo Bernardi). This card is a silver print – you can see the silvery reflection at the corners and edges. The back has no identifying mark, except that the postage stamp box is marked ‘Made in Germany’.
CONDITION: This is in NEAR-MINT condition. I see no flaws – the corners are still crisp, but with a bare showing of paper. This apparently was slotted into a book or scrapbook at one time, which helped preserve it. IF YOU NEED TO SEE A LARGER IMAGE OR ANOTHER VIEW, EMAIL ME!
SHIPMENT: Buyer pays $1.81 First Class shipping. Insurance is optional for U.S. buyers. I COMBINE SHIPPING IF YOU WIN MULTIPLE AUCTIONS!
PAYMENT: I accept PayPal, money orders, cashier's checks, and personal checks. If paying by personal check, I will hold this for 10 days until shipping, to assure clearance of the check.
