Description: This vintage real photo postcard features actress and writer, Marcella Albani (1899-1959). She was an Italian film actress that appeared in 50 films between 1919 and 1936. Albani was “discovered” by writer/director Guido Parish (Schamberg) when she was twenty years old. They became a very successful film couple until 1924 when they parted ways. Their movies were predominately tear jerkers and adventure stories. The actress also worked with other famous directors such as Joe May, Friedrich Zelnik, and Wilhelm Dieterle. Albani was a major star in the European cinema in the late 1920’s. Her films were made in five different European countries. Many of Albani’s roles were portraying elegant Latin beauties. At the advent of sound movies, Miss Albani turned to writing. One of her several novels was turned into a movie. She continued to act until 1936. Albani was married to director Mario Franchini in 1931. This postcard accentuates the beauty of Miss Albani. The portrait is artistic and risque. This postcard was published by Iris Verlag as part of a series (no.5149). Print in the bottom right hand corner of the image states "Aafa Film Verleih". This vintage portrait postcard is in very good condition (see scans).
