Like many American films of the time, The Sunset Trail was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors ordered cut one intertitle, "I must see you alone," and all love scenes between the married woman and man except for the last one.[3]
The film is preserved at the George Eastman House Motion Picture Collection.[4]
