Wonderful estate lot of 56 original photographs and 2 National Vaudeville Artists (NVA) dues-paid receipts belonging to Helen Moretti, a vaudeville performer who appeared on the B.F. Keith Circuit. The largest photograph is slightly larger than a standard postcard, with the balance consisting of postcard-size and smaller snapshots.
The lot includes numerous candid images documenting Helen Moretti's life and career, including beach scenes in period bathing suits, family and group portraits, fashion studies, travel and vacation photographs, city scenes, posed portraits, and several images that appear related to her vaudeville career. Included is an attractive promotional photo/card reading "Helen Moretti – B.F. Keith Circuit." The two paper National Vaudeville Artists dues-paid receipts are dated 1926 and 1927, providing excellent provenance to the collection. The Keith Circuit was among the premier American vaudeville theater chains of the early 20th century.
Condition varies throughout the lot, as expected from an estate grouping. Some photographs have corner wear, edge chips, creases, surface soiling, paper loss, adhesive residue, or scrapbook remnants, while many remain in good overall condition. The NVA receipts have noticeable edge losses and wear. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are an important part of the description.
