The Trap, 1919

A dark-haired woman's head and shoulders.

What

A 1919 American one-sheet for The Trap, a Universal silent drama.

Why

Frank Reicher directed Olive Tell in it, from the 1915 play by Jules Eckert Goodman and Richard Harding Davis, and the film is lost.

Notice

"It's A Universal Picture" is set in red script across the top, and the portrait fades out into loose blue and white brushwork.

“A face drawn in quick strokes”
