More Photos of Valentino with his Dogs

These are five great photos of Valentino with his dogs. It is widely known that he loved his dogs, there are various photos of him with them. The first photo is a fantastic candid photo with another man and a dog. You can notice that this photo is from ebay, I do not typically post photos that read ebay; however, this is a great photo, I wanted to post this one due to the rarity of this pose. If anyone has this photo, I would love to post it or for that manner, own it.

  1. I just bought a vintage original of the last one. I know I paid way too much but I just love it and had to have it. I can't get over how excellent is the quality of the vintage photos.
    They are definitely worth the price if you can swing it.

  2. That is great! Original photos are much more rare and can go upwards of $100 to $200. You are right once you obtain it and hold it in your hand, you realize that it is worth the price.

  4. Oh yes, you did just fine. Many of the original photos are getting more and more difficult to find. Most of them are put away by collectors, so, good find!

  5. Thanks. Some of those original photos are as you say, listing for hundreds even thousands of dollars. I don't see them selling at those prices however. They just keep relisting...

  6. The average price for a desirable original photo should be around $100, give or take a few dollars here and there. People who are trying to get $200 + is a bit over priced. The biggest factor is the photo itself, the pose. Rare, candid, or pre-1920 poses I have seen on ebay go as high as $300-$400. If it is a common photo from SOS, it is not going to bring that kind of money.
