Highly collectible, original, 7 1/2" X 9 3/4," glossy photo of Rudolph Valentino. The photo was taken in 1921, during the filming of "The Conquering Power." It is written on the back that the photo was donated to a Rudolph Valentino Club in February, 1940. The borders of the photo have been trimmed somewhat. T is a small tear on the right border that goes into the image about 1/2." It has been mended on the back with Magic Tape. T are a number of very small "pock marks" (about the size a very sharp pencil point), but none are on Valentino's face. The very tip of the upper-left corner is bent and cracked. T are two small, soft bends and a few dings. But the claritiy is incredible! You can clearly see the details on Valentino's holster and you can count the rows of basketweave on the small table. It's a classic photo of a Hollywood legend!
