Was originally called the Rogue's Romance after another of Rudolph Valentino's movies, but renamed a month later for this Christmas-themed Cherry Heering competition.
Ought to include attribution to Maks Pazuniak at Brooklyn's Jupiter Disco.
I guess I misremembered, but it's the same recipe as the other three. The earliest I can find it in my collection is in the 1934 Boothby which is where I must have found it circa 2007. EUVS has it a year earlier in the 1933 Hollywood Cocktails (third printing, they don't have the other two printings scanned in).
Also the Hey Hey – it appears 4 times under different names in the Savoy.
