Scope and Contents
Photo, 8 by 10 inches (20 by 26 cm.) A girl is saved by a miracle after she falls from a cliff in the Argentine Andes, and is blessed with healing powers. A shrine is built on the site, and a whole city grows around it, rich with gold from the grateful worshipers. Ruiz, an evil and sadistic general, captures the city, confiscates the gold, and closes the shrine. But the Gaucho, the charismatic leader of a band of outlaws, comes to the rescue. Photo shows miniature set built as the village. Early starring role for the great Lupe Velez.
