An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 7" x 9 1/2" [18 x 24 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the 1921 Rex Ingram silent Argentina World War I (WWI) romantic melodrama ("An epic of modern life that has thrilled 10,000,000 American readers and many more the world over"; "Metro Presents The Million Dollar Master Picturization of 'The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse'"; "By Vicente Blasco Ibanez"; "Adapted by June Mathis"; about the son of a wealthy Argentinean family, which moves to Europe prior to World War I, and he enlists in the French army, and he ultimately is killed by his cousin, who is in the German army) starring Rudolph Valentino, Pomeroy Cannon, Josef Swickard, Bridgetta Clark, Alice Terry, Nigel De Brulier, and Bowditch M. Turner. Note that this movie includes a romantic sequence where Valentino has a torrid love affair with a married woman, and there is a scene where they dance the tango together (which at the time was the "forbidden dance"), and it was this scene which made him a major romantic star! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is a wonderful key book still, because Valentino, at the beginning of his stardom, is billed as "Rodolf Valuntino", which we have never seen before! Also note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: good to very good. All the blank borders were neatly trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition!
