This figure is
painted up as Edmund Bentley, a Philadelphia Loyalist who appears in the
Christian movie Beyond the Mask.
Beyond the Mask is set in the world
of the 1770s as tumult and war erupt in Great Britain’s North American
colonies. Mr. Bentley works for Ben Franklin before he is fired for
incompetence. He then joins a group of
Loyalists who are working for Charles Kemp against the American rebels. Mr. Bentley appears to be an assistant to the
Loyalist leader Mr. Richard Harrison. This figure recreates one of
his outfits. To learn more about the movie, visit www.BeyondTheMaskMovie.com
The original figure was made by
Marx as a character figure of Johnny Tremain in the 1950s. Thankfully this figure was recast in the
2000s so that I could acquire one.

This outfit is worn by Mr.
Edmund Bentley when he meets Charles Kemp, the Director of the East India Company. It consists of a cream-colored waistcoat and
light blue breeches. In the movie he also wears a brown coat with this outfit. However, because he is often seen in a brown
waistcoat without a coat, it seems reasonable to assume that he wore his
cream-colored waistcoat without a coat sometimes. He was
the first figure that I painted with a grey tricorne hat.
