About this Item

Bifolium, approx. 6 X 7-1/2 in., printed on all sides. Printed program for Friday, July 13, 1934, featuring two 1931 comedies: "La Prison en Folie" and "Mam'zelle Nitouche." Haik was a producer and owner of several theaters, with a particular claim to fame among French film devotees for having been the first to present the work of Charlie Chaplin in that country -- he also is credited with inventing the nickname "Charlot" by which Chaplin was widely known in France. A Jew, Haik suffered under Nazi occupation when his theaters and businesses were seized. He produced an anti-Nazi film before fleeing to Tunisia, where he had been born. Folded horizontally; a few minor wrinkles.
