Lubin Photos
History Detectives examines century old photos that may have captured the dawn of American movie-making, nearly 3000 miles from Hollywood. Some captions refer to the Siegmund Lubin Studios. Who was Siegmund Lubin? History Detectives goes on an excursion through an early movie mogul's dramatic rise and fall.
