Here
are some very early shots of The Sheik circa 1950-mid 60's.
Early
in his career he was "The Sheik of Araby"
(One
of the early pictures is of The Sheik shaking hands with
one
of America's greatest entertainers, Liberace)

More 8x10's sent to me by The Sheik's family to be included in this site:
The
Sheik's ability to "throw fire" is something that has
to
be seen to be believed. Here are some pictures showing
him
doing just that.
Below
are a series of pictures that should serve as proof-positive of
the
Sheik's mental instability. These are classic facial expressions of
the
Sheik while in the ring.
My most cherished picture and with good reason!
The collection:
The following four 8x10 pictures of The Sheik
