In the 1920s, cinema idol Rudolph Valentino was forced to take drastic security measures because fans continually invaded his home and pilfered his belongings as mementos.

Additionally, three Great Danes, two Italian mastiffs, and one Spanish greyhound ran loose through the courtyard and terrace as sentries.
