An Adventure On The Mexican Border
''An Adventure on the Mexican Border'' is a 1913 American short silent Western film directed by, written by and starring Romaine Fielding with co-stars Mary Ryan and Robyn Adair. It was filmed at Nogales, Arizona. Plot The film depicts the actions of U.S. troops stationed on the boundary dividing the United States from Mexico "with a view to protecting the International line and the citizens of the United States." On the other side of the border, Mexican soldiers "were camped to do likewise for their country." In this highly charged climate "one of the bright-eyed senoritas from the southern race" has captivated an officer from each side. The Mexican captain, played by Fielding, wins her hand via "quiet love and kindness," while "the irrepressible, impassionate United States trooper tries to take her heart by storm."

Lubin Manufacturing Company
The Lubin Manufacturing Company was an American motion picture production company that produced silent films from 1896 to 1916. Lubin films were distributed with a Liberty Bell trademark. History The Lubin Manufacturing Company was formed in 1902 and incorporated in 1909 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by Siegmund Lubin. The company was the offspring of Lubin's film equipment and film distribution and production business, which began in 1896. Siegmund Lubin, a Jewish immigrant from Poland, was originally an optical and photography expert in Philadelphia but became intrigued with Thomas Edison's motion picture camera and saw the potential in selling similar equipment as well as in making films. Known as "Pop" Lubin, he constructed his own combined camera/projector he called a "Cineograph" and his lower price and marketing know-how brought reasonable success. In 1897 Lubin began making films for commercial release including ''Meet Me at the Fountain'' in 1904. Certain his busines ...
