The Lone Ranger's (Clayton Moore) mask from the television series The Lone Ranger. The Lone Ranger wore his mask throughout the series to keep his identity secret as he brought justice to outlaws.

Accredited as being ABC's first hit television program, The Lone Ranger was one of the highest-rated shows in 1950. Actor Clayton Moore played the masked hero in 169 episodes from 1949-1951 and 1954-1957, and in two feature films in 1957 and 1959. This mask originated from the collection of Moore's daughter Dawn, one of three masks previously displayed in her father's personal library in his home. Of the other two, one resides in a private collection and the other is on permanent display in the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.

This black reinforced felt domino mask features an adjustable elastic strap. It was made from a molded cast of Moore's face and is a smaller version of the original mask. This smaller mask, a joint effort by Moore and the series' costumer, allowed Moore to have better vision as he performed his stunts. This mask comes in a custom-made acrylic display case. This lot exhibits a crack along the bridge and fragility of the felt. Dimensions: (displayed) 13" x 9" x 9" (33 cm x 23 cm x 23 cm)

Additional Provenance: Letter of Authenticity from Dawn Moore.

Estimate: $20,000 - 40,000
