An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm] Movie Still (mounted to a 9 1/4" x 12 1/2" board; see below) (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 auction is for a deluxe still that measures 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm], but because it was lightly glued to a 9 1/4" x 12 1/2" board, it is being included in this auction of "oversized photos", although this photo is not itself oversized (it was only lightly glued at the top and could be easily removed by a talented amateur or a professional). Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock and it has an embossed photographer's stamp in the bottom right (it also has a stamp on the back from the photographer, but you can't see it because it is mounted to the board, but it is visible in person, because the still is only lightly glued to the board at the top). Condition: good to very good. The still is mounted to a heavy board at the top (see above). Otherwise, it is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
