We found information on the Internet that says that Henrique Vivian Messetti was a member of a vaudeville-circus family, who first appeared on stage at the age of four. His parents settled in Los Angeles and he produced and toured in shows called "Messetti's Great Road Show" and "Messett's Musical Entertainers", which were mostly performed in minstrel blackface. Messetti acted in several early motion pictures. In his later years, he dropped his first name and performed as a female impersonator! If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had an 11" tear at lower right with some small paper loss near the bottom of the tear (in the solid black) and it had some tiny paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
