Abstract
Ernesto Priego looks at the “origin” page of Mexico’s best-known pop icon, the lucha libre celebrity Santo, the man of the silver mask. This page from 1952 illuminates the connections between photography, television, comics and theatrical popular entertainments like Mexican free-wrestling.
