An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Ramon Novarro was a major Mexican star from the 1910s to the 1930s. He was an extra until starring in The Prisoner of Zenda in 1922, for which he was paid $125 a week. Three years later, he was one of Hollywood's biggest stars, and he earned $10,000 a week for starring in his most famous role, 1925's Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ. He survived the coming of sound, but his popularity declined greatly after a few sound movies, and he mostly retired. Some of his other movies include: The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and The Big Steal. Sadly, in 1968, he was beaten to death by two punks who invaded his Hollywood home thinking he had a large amount of cash hidden away (he did not!). He was 69 years old. Important Added Info: Note that this still has a FACSIMILE autograph that is within the printing (it has NOT been personally autographed). It is one of a number of similar deluxe stills (printed on heavy paper) we have been consigned, and which we are auctioning in separate auctions. Based on the stars pictured and their ages in the images, we would say that these are almost certainly from around 1932 or 1933. We don't know for what purpose these were created. They could have been some sort of advertising promo, perhaps in conjunction with a movie magazine of the 1930s. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
