Balboa Filmography
BALBOA STUDIO FILMOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION This work presents filmography data from the Balboa studio, owned and operated by the Horkheimer Brothers at Long Beach, California, from June 1913 to March 1918. It is divided into four sections : 1. Filmography classified by title 2. Filmography classified by US exchange 3. List of actors, with associated filmography 4. List of directors, with associated filmography. The research was conducted within the following archives, which I gratefully thank : Bibliothèque de l’Arsenal (Paris) British Film Institute Library (London) Free Library (Philadelphia) Library of Congress (Washington) Long Beach Public Library (Long Beach) Margaret Herrick Library (Beverly Hills) New York Public Performing Arts Library (New York City) Some of the consulted periodicals were English, most of them were American. Since the Balboa studio was fully independent and without any long-term connection with a large US exchange company, it must be emphasized that some pictures, including features, never got a national release. Some of them were presented in England, but not in the US, some others probably only knew a limited and regional release. For example, this is the case of the first five-reel feature directed by Henry King, The Brand of Man (1915), totally unknown in every periodical listed below, and therefore also unknown from the AFI Catalog. It is nevertheless certain that all the pictures mentioned in this document had actually been produced. Two picture mentioned by the AFI Catalog (The Policewoman and The Explorer) have not been included here, because most probably these projects never reached the production phase. The list of actors which is presented here included every man, woman and child known to have been connected with Balboa at any time during their carrier. -

Mining a Rich Lode: the Making of the Springdallah Deep Lead Goldfield Communities
Mining a Rich Lode: The Making of the Springdallah Deep Lead Goldfield Communities Joan E. Hunt DipTchg (SCV Toorak) GradDipEd (Charles Sturt University) GradDipContEd Japanese (Melbourne University) AdvDip Local History (Oxford University) This thesis is submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Faculty of Education and the Arts Federation University P.O. Box 663 University Drive, Mount Helen Ballarat, Victoria, 3353 Australia Submitted for examination 18 December 2015 ABSTRACT Although little material evidence survives other than mullock heaps and the occasional ruined building, a large body of archival documentation exists to help reveal the history of the deep lead gold mining communities at Springdallah. This thesis reconstructs the discovery, rise and progress of that goldfield, 30km south-west of Ballarat, through a study of family formation and community building, facilitated by micro-study tools including prosopographical and genealogical databases. At its prosperous and productive peak in the 1860s and 1870s, the communities relied totally on the mining industry for their existence. This thesis positions the alluvial deep lead gold mining industry firmly within the long but disparate historiography of Australian, and particularly Victorian, gold seeking. Unlike the many regional histories that celebrate the growth from goldfields to city status, it focuses on the miners who worked the deep leads of buried river beds, and how they and their families effected material and social change to benefit the communities they created. The findings of this thesis reveal that, in contrast to the strong Cornish presence on many Victorian goldfields, miners at Springdallah came mainly from northern England, south-west Ireland, and the lowlands of Scotland, often with extensive kinship networks. -
The Changing of Hands: Beginning of the End (Drawn from Balboa Films, Pp
The Changing of Hands: Beginning of the End (Drawn from Balboa Films, pp. 159-178) The Balboa plant was turned over to creditors, March 25, 1918. Though the studio would continue to be managed by the Balboa trustees, the trust being a corporation of the studio’s major creditors, there were a few failed attempts to sell the site and a few successful ones. Most of these sales would be hindered in part by the slump in the market, by buyers with bad credit, and even blocked purposefully at times by the share-holding interests of the Horkheimers who were reluctant to give up the reins of the studio. Despite the changing of hands, people continued to call the plant, from 1918 to 1925, the Balboa Studios, and the plant’s walls were faithfully repainted with the Balboa name till the plant’s demolition in 1925, despite all the new “owners” who tried to reclaim the site. For the last seven years of operation, the Balboa plant never regained the glory of its past, while the creditors failed to find the right buyer, and though the new operators raved about the facilities and made ambitious plans, mismanagement and misfortune blocked Balboa’s road to recovery. Throughout those painful seven years of unrelenting decline for the movie industry in Long Beach, H. M. Horkheimer was still waiting eagerly in the wings for one last fling at eternal fame and glory. Unfortunately, with all the failed attempts to recapture its past as a buzzing film center, Balboa Studios never succeeded in netting the right buyer, and all the prospective deals seemed to fizzle out, one after the other, during the sour market, during the difficult times that followed the First World War. -
