A Tyrone Power Costume Sketch for The Mark of Zorro Twentieth Century-Fox, 1940. Designed by Travis Banton. Gouache and watercolor on illustration board signed ('Santiago') to lower left, with a description plate affixed to bottom of sketch inscribed, ''The Mark of Zorro' / Tyrone Power as 'Don Diego' / Traveling Outfit of the Period / Change No. 3' in typescript, double matted. After a series of cute romantic films, Tyrone Power's strengths were finally discovered by Twentieth Century-Fox, the studio to which he was under contract. His swashbuckling prowess in The Mark of Zorro and other action films spelled success for this handsome, almost beautiful, leading man. Like Clark Kent in the Superman stories, Power plays a dandy who is secretly the masked hero, Zorro, who avenges a dictator on his homeland. He can be seen wearing this suit in an early scene where he approaches the town in a rowboat and then visits a saloon. 15 x 24 in. matted For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
