Natacha Rambova's Assistance in Final Decree of Distribution

This document is public record, from the Rudolph Valentino Case File #83678 which is currently missing from its rightful housing in The Los Angeles County Hall of Records. It was posted on a Youtube video with a commentary which misrepresented the legal purpose of the action. Here we find Valentino's wife Natacha Rambova, eleven years after his death, assisting in the final distribution, i.e. settlement of the estate by signing for a one dollar bequest. "In accordance with Order Settling First and Final and Decree of Distribution", Natacha Rambova transacted the request. This document should be returned to the Hall of Records as it is public record and should be available for public review. 

Financial Status of Valentino Estate - 1930

 The Court of Appeals ruling exonerating S. George Ullman, reported the "actual value" of the Rudolph Valentino estate @1930 to be $300,000.00. (see extract from case file) By today's monetary exchange rate x 15, this would be a value of $4,500,000.00, When Valentino died he left a heavily involved estate as the court extract in this post refers to it as, "a practically bankrupt estate". The meekest implication Ullman mismanaged the estate is absurd.

Granted for decades this could not be proven because the court records revealing all of this were conveniently stolen from their rightful housing in The Los Angeles County Hall of Records. The proof of Ullman's true, stellar performance as Valentino's executor has consequently for years been lied about to fit an agenda. 

As the point is made in the extract, his amazing performance was "emphatically" not pointed out. 

Ullman Makes a Payment

This document stands as proof Jean Valentino was still pursuing George Ullman in an attempt to collect estate money he and Alberto spent decades earlier. In a cruel twist of fate which is detailed in Affairs Valentino, Ullman incurred this enormous and outrageous debt... but here we see a note that Ullman did pay almost $6000.00 at this time which by today's exchange rate would be a value of $90,000.00. 

 

Certificate of Clerk

Proof that the Rudolph Valentino's probate case file is missing from its rightful housing in the Los Angeles County Hall of Records. I was able to recover some one thousand pages of the file in a separate location as it was submitted with the appeals case filed by Valentino's close friend and trusted business manager S. George Ullman.

 

The Actual Liability

The actual amount Alberto Valentino attempted to obtain for a second time from his brother's estate via litigation against  George Ullman has been wildly inaccurately reported over the years. The file of probate court records which I recovered reveal the actual numbers and they are far greater than the $20,000.00 typically cited. I also make a point of including the monetary exchange rate because the value today stands at about times fifteen. The "appellant's", (George Ullman's) net liability as cited here in this extract reached a total of $183,754.39 and would today be almost three million dollars. Considering the appeals court found Ullman not guilty of any fraud or mismanagement and considering the fact that nearly all of this money was advanced in good faith to the people Ullman then believed to be rightful heirs, it is a true miscarriage of justice that the Valentino estate attempted to collect a dime on this situation. 

They benefitted from the advances and I believe were responsible for the disappearance of the page of the will which could have avoided all of this. The continued attacks on Ullman are simply imo just a cover up for this deplorable persecution of Ullman via lawfare by the Valentino estate and their minions. It is also the reason why estate sanctioned biographies are given inaccurate data because the truth is shockingly different. 

 

The Value of the Valentino Estate Itemized

In 1930, the court conducted an audit of the Rudolph Valentino estate as Valentino's close friend and trusted business manager, S. George Ullman proved his stellar performance as estate executor. Here this accounting of the estate assets and overall value is itemized and assessed at $325,779.36 which by today's exchange rate at x 15 would be $4,886,690.40, nearly five million dollars. I ask how George Ulman could ever have been accused of mismanagement with these numbers on the books four years after Valentino's death?

I contend it was lawfare designed to get rid of Ullman and had nothing to do at all with mismanagement. This page is taken from the Baskerville Audit found within the Appeals Court records which I discovered. 

The Persecution of S. George Ullman

There are many documents on file in The Los Angeles County Hall of Records which relate to the thirty year collection process on Valentino's close friend and trusted business manager, S. George Ullman. As the file of Valentino's probate records proves definitively, the collection process was waged unfairly by Alberto and Jean Valentino. The money they attempted to recover from Ullman for thirty years, was the result of a missing page of Valentino's will. The money he originally advanced to Valentino's brother Alberto, his sister Maria Strada and his ex-wife Natacha Rambova's aunt Teresa Werner was done so because he believed they were rightful heirs. 

As executor he was held responsible to return these advances to the very people who benefitted from the money. The court recommended a Fairness Lien be established to recover the money from those who did spend the money but this was never executed. 

Here we find Ullman still being pursued by the Valentino estate, then Alberto and Jean Valentino in 1942 with the amount plus interest soaring to nearly $100,000.00. It is most often reported the amount was far less. 

It is also acknowledged on this one page, Ullman made payments over the years. And it must be noted the amounts by today's exchange rates would be times fifteen in value. I share this one page, chosen from many... to prove the persecution of George Ullman. 

 

Rudolph Valentino's Mother's Death Certificate

The death certificate of Rudolph Valentino's mother Gabrielle Barbin as requested and retrieved by Renato Floris on October 10, 2014. It is interesting to note that the name of her deceased husband, was recorded as, "Jean Guglielmi" and not "Giovanni Guglielmi".  Despite being the French version of the Italian name, I contend names are not changed based on country of residence. I also contend this is why she named her grandson, "Jean" and not "Giovanni" as she had every intention to take the infant with her to France. At the time of her death, if Jean Valentino's recorded birth is correct, the child would have been three and a half years old. Why would she have left her home and small grandson in Taranto in Southern Italy to live in France?
