This cannot be a poster for MABUSE.

UFA was not the production company nor distributor for that film.  
Nero-Film AG was the prod. company.

UFA distributed the 1962 version on DVD, in 2005.

Also of note is that the word Production on this poster is the  
english spelling of this word. In German, it would be spelled  
Produktion.

 I'd say from the style of the artwork, though, that you're  
probably right that it's late 20s or early 30s. The style of the  
logo could also offer a clue as to when it dates from. You might go  
through some online examples of UFA posters and compare logos.

That's where the export story comes in I think. Unfortunately i don't  
have the poster with me. The pic is from the auction catalogue.  
Decided to pick them up in the New Year for wife- and taxreasons and  
have not had a closer look. Walked in the auction rather unprepared  
(thought it was viewing day) and bought more posters than I intended.
