Description: NOTE: This is an original design and is copyrighted. Theda Bara, born Theodosia Burr Goodman; July 29, 1885 – April 7, 1955) was an American silent film and stage actress. Bara was one of the more popular actresses of the silent era and one of cinema's early sex symbols.

The studios promoted a fictitious persona for Bara as an Egyptian-born woman interested in the occult.
