an autographed photo-card of the German speaking actor Gert Frobe, who played the part of Auric Goldfinger, a psychopathic, gold-loving, villain in the James Bond film 'Goldfinger'. Interestingly, his English was so poor that almost all his lines, bar a couple of sentences, were spoken (dubbed) by an English TV actor (Michael Collins), and dubbed into German (by Frobe himself) when the film was shown in Germany ! The film was a box office success, when it was screened worldwide in 1964, grossing $ 120 million in the first two weeks. It was banned in Israel, because of Frobe's Nazi connections - although the truth was, that he had left the Nazi party two years before WWII AND had sheltered two Jews in the basement of his house throughout the entire war.. . . . . it is an amazing piece of memorabilia.
