Occult Books

The 50's and 60's brought us three books about Valentino in the afterlife. These books claim to have made contact with Valentino. These books, for the most part are very difficult to find. Some people see them as trash, I find them interesting because you just never know. Most likely this was just a way for people to capitalize on the re-emergence of Valentino due to the Anthony Dexter movie in 1951; however, they are great conversation pieces. This first book is, "The Return of Rudolph Valentino, " by Carol McKinstry. The book was published in 1952 by Kirby and Gee. This is a hardback book with the dust cover. This is a difficult book to find, especially with the dust cover.

This is "The Voice of Valentino, " by Lynn Russell. It was published in London in 1965 by The Press Rengency. It probably would have sold more copies if they would have featured Valentino on the cover. This is a hardback book with the dust cover. This is a very difficult book to find, especially with the dust cover. This is "Rudolph Valentino is my Spirit Friend," by Anna Lou Erhard. The book was published in 1959. I am unsure if this book is a hardback or paperback. It is a very difficult book to find. I am still looking for this one myself.
