"Asps... very dangerous. You go first."

This desirable display mat from the first of the Indiana Jones films consists of a great picture of Indy and Sallah lifting the Ark of the Covenant,  together with the signature of John Rhys-Davies who portrayed Indy's friend in Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade. It has been professionally double matted in acid free materials and is ready to be framed.

Sallah appears in Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), where he helps Jones decipher the inscription on the back of Marion Ravenwood's medallion by taking him to an old wise man. They learn that the Nazis are digging in the wrong location for the Ark of the Covenant—due to them only having access to one side of the medallion—so Sallah and Jones infiltrate the Nazi dig and they discover the real location of the Well of Souls, where the Ark is kept. He reluctantly joins Jones in the snake-infested tomb, and they move the Ark to the surface. However, the Nazis discover the secret dig and capture the Ark and Sallah. They also throw Marion into the tomb with Jones, and seal it shut. Jones and Marion escape, however, and he tells Sallah to secure some transportation back to England. He makes a deal with the captain of the Bantu Wind, a tramp steamer, for bringing Jones, Marion, and the Ark back to the States, referring to the two of them as his family.

 
He reappeared in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), where he fails in stopping Marcus Brody being captured by the Nazis at İskenderun. Sallah later takes Jones and his father, Henry to the Nazi convoy near the Holy Grail's location. He borrows his brother-in-law's car, which is destroyed in the ensuing battle between the Nazis and the Grail's guardians. Indy tells Sallah "No camels" and Sallah takes horses from the killed guardians for the return trip, as well as camels to compensate for his brother-in-law's loss. At the film's end, Sallah inquires what "Junior" means, and Henry Jones Sr. explains that it is his name: "Henry Jones, Jr.". Indiana (who apparently does not like his given name) reveals that he nicknamed himself "Indiana" after his dog, leaving Sallah roaring with laughter.
