Just updated the "LeNiews" page again... http://www.riefenstahl.org/resources/news/ ...(for reference, the last update was November 3rd). There's an article about that forthcoming German biopic that Luc mentioned a few weeks ago, but other than that there's nothing overly significant, really, except maybe that a huge fortune (4-million euros' worth) of Leni's photos were stolen in Cologne. Okay, Helmut, what did you do with them??? Ron ;) Woof?... http://www.Psymon.com Ach, du Leni!... http://www.Riefenstahl.org Hmm... http://www.Imaginary-Friend.ca From josechan1 at yahoo.com Thu Dec 6 17:06:33 2007 From: josechan1 at yahoo.com (jose peralta) Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 14:06:33 -0800 (PST) Subject: [LEN-E] Leni in the news In-Reply-To: <20071206143039.0949E2BBBA@mailwash40.pair.com> Message-ID: <259876.67571.qm@web30813.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Oddly enough, I have recently notice a slew of Leni photos currently on Ebay.......

If you mean the many different ones being sold by the seller "finephoto", bear in mind that what they're selling are single pages ripped out of a copy of Leni's 1937 book "Schoenheit im Olympischen Kampf" (which you can tell from their description, if you look closely enough) -- so while they are genuinely "vintage", they're not actually "photos". I feel a bit sorry for some of the buyers, actually, who sometimes have been spending so much that they could just buy an actual, vintage copy of the entire book (and not just one page)! As for anything sold by anyone else, I don't know -- although after this 4-million euro theft, I'm sure that law enforcement must be keeping an eye on eBay! I think a thief would have to be really foolish to try to sell them there.
