A Hollywood tailor says that Valentino's weight at the time of ’ his illness was about 175. George Ullman, the late star's manager, puts it as 160. He also recalls 1 Valentino’s height as 5 feet ll’.i inches. The tailor thinks it was about 5 feet 11. Another person who was closely associated wdth the star, believes he was no taller than 5 feet 7 inches. Whatever his exact physical measurements, he towered, in the imagination of the public. above any other screen lover, before or since.
