The Iron Mask - best version for home theater

I'm looking for a restored version of this film, and one with the Carl Davis score. I can't seem to find much info. The Film Detective version ('15) seems to be my best bet. Any information?
Thanks

I sought and found the Kino DVD edition. See
https://www.silentera.com/video/ironMaskHV.html. Longer out of print now, I guess, so it may be hard to find. You should check EBAY. I can't find any reviews comparing the Kino "restored" version with the Film Detective "restored" version. Both have the great Carl Davis score.

I have a recording of this from TCM in my video collection. Restored in association with 'The Museum of Modern Art' in New York, with the Carl Davis Score.
It runs 105 minutes, including the brief 'talkie' introduction (apparently by Fairbanks) before the film starts.
