![Collection of J Kyrle Fletcher Ltd., High Street, Newport, Monmouthshire. A dealer in theatrical memorabilia, 'The Book Shop for Boys and Girls with books on many subjects for grown ups'. The collection includes works by Lotte Reiniger (1899 - 1981) a German pioneer of silhouette animation, who predated Walt Disney by over ten years. She married Carl Koch in 1921, collaborated with Fritz Lang and Berthold Brecht, Jean Renoir and many others. Her most famous full length feature animated silhouette film 'The Adventures of Prince Achmed' was released in 1926 to great acclaim. She and her husband fled Nazi Germany in 1933 (both were involved in left-wing politics) and worked with Jean Renoir in Paris and Luchino Visconti in Rome. They moved to London in 1935, making many short films based on Grimm's Fairy Tales. Reiniger was awarded The Filmband in Gold of the Deutscher Filmpreis in 1972 and received the Great Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. She died on 19th June 1981 aged 82.
