Hollywood's first leading man, Rudolph Valentino changed the way movies were made and marketed during the frenzy that surrounded his short but brilliant career. Captured here in his most iconic role as "The Sheik" this is an original image from the 1920's (film was released in 1921) and has handwritten notes on the back. This is a silver gelatin masterpiece that exhibits crystal clarity and unbelievable presentation quality! By far, one of the best images of Valentino we have ever seen!
