MOYNAHAN
"In the Foyer." Yiddish theater illustration, ca. 1920. Pen and ink on board. 394x457 mm; 15 1/2x18 inches. Signed "Moynahan" in lower right image.

Can be partially dated by the 1926 death of Max Bulman as Velvel, the brother in law (upper right). The play also stars Betty Frank as the wayward daughter (lower right). Frank starred in a play by Frida Frayman (AKA Freida Freiman) whose husband, Louis Freiman, acted in many of the plans, and is depicted here as the marriage broker (upper right).
