    Description

    Vintage original 11x14 in. US lobby card
    from the New York nightclub dance-themed silent film romance
    THE MASKED DANCER
    , released in 1924 by Principal Distributing and
    directed by Burton L. King
    .
    Robert Powell (Leslie Austin), a New York City husband, is fond of going out on the town and making friends with various women here and there, with nightclub dancers high on his list. His wife, Betty (Helene Chadwick), figures that two can play that game, and she dons a mask and becomes a very popular dancer. Robert falls in love with the Masked Dancer, not knowing she is his wife. Betty has a smoothie Prince (Lowell Sherman) as a second suitor.
    The image features an interior medium shot of Betty Powell (
    Helene Chadwick
    ) wearing a burgundy dress with a mask covering her face as she tries closing the door on the wanted affections from the popular actor
    Arthur Housman
    (who is best remembered for portraying a drunk), as she tells him, "
    Your flowers--yes. But you--no!"
    The
    beautiful
    color tints are fresh and vibrant and the background is rendered in a light purple. It is unrestored in very fine-
    condition
    random light smudges in the borders; a small ink run in the bottom border above the caption; a 1 in. diagonal crease in the background area near the center of the left border; and three small circular stains near the bottom right in the background area. There are no pinholes, tears, or other flaws.
