June Caprice survival
I've been reading Lost Cleopatra and it makes a mention of June Caprice, Fox's answer to Mary Pickford. How much of her films have survived and are any of them available to the general public? She didn't make that many films before she retired in the early Twenties and we all know about the survival rate of the early Fox films. Rogues and Romance (1920, Pathe) is at the LoC in a partial form, and was seen at the 2017 Mostly Lost workshop.

An abridgement of A Damsel in Distress (1919) exists.
In Walked Mary (1920) exists at the Library of Congress.
And Lobster Films in Paris has a copy of Oh Boy! (1920).

Re: June Caprice survival
Thanks, Bruce. At least some her later films exist. I guess it's possible that Unknown 274 might have the same fate as Chaney's The Unknown and exist in an archive somewhere as an assumably unidentified film.
