Poster art by Kachanov.

After his step brother Jacob dies in an accident, farmer Matthias Ferner learns from his widow Paula, that she and her two children will inherit the whole farm. She takes charge immediately, failing to realize that he must feel like her servant. So he searches and destroys his brother’s will and even perjures himself in court – but there’s a witness he didn’t count on.

The poster is in very good condition with one horizontal fold, a 1/2 inch tear at the right edge and corner pinholes.
