RUDOLPH VALENTINO "THE SON OF THE SHEIK" 1926 ORIGINAL MOVIE HERALD

Description

Original vintage movie herald from Uruguay (South America). This kind of heralds are truly scarce, they were printed to advertise the movies and used actual photos and graphics from the original advertising campaigns. Most of the time they advertise a double program on two close dates, usually during the same week. We're lucky to have gotten these a long time ago, now being offered on eBay for the first time, including some sought-after classic titles from the golden era of movies.

Comments:
The Son of the Sheik is a 1926 American silent adventure/drama film directed by George Fitzmaurice and starring Rudolph Valentino and Vilma Bánky. The film is based on the 1925 romance novel The Sons of the Sheik by Edith Maude Hull, and is a sequel to the 1921 hit film The Sheik, which also stars Rudolph Valentino. The Son of the Sheik is Valentino's final film and went into general release nearly two weeks after his death from peritonitis at the age of 31.
