Surviving Copy
No extant print of Veiled Aristocrats is known to exist. It was presumed to be a lost film for many years, but a trailer and fragments from two reels were discovered in a Tennessee garage in 1992. The surviving footage was restored by the George Eastman House in Rochester, New York, and has been preserved in the Library of Congress. The original film’s running time is unknown. Most of the final ten minutes of the surviving incomplete version consists of musical numbers performed by Rena’s house servants, including a rendition of the song "River, Stay Away from My Door."

“Quotations—always inexact. I don’t trust people who cannot even copy out.”
