Here's a real Hollywood novelty from the silent era. During Valentino's Very Artistic period when he was married to Natacha Rambova, this very singular 143-page volume was published in its first and only edition. Valentino actually claimed that these gems of verse had been set down by automatic writing and were in fact the work of his Indian spirit guide Black Feather.
