Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein
A young girl is almost cheated out of her inheritance (a valuable mine) by a gang of cutthroats who had once befriended her father in this well-remembered serial starring Ruth Roland. Incorporating Hindu mysticism and Old West shenanigans, The Tiger's Trail was filmed at Long Beach, CA, and at Los Angeles' Eastlake Park using the wild animals housed there by film pioneer Colonel William N. Selig. Roland battled both wildlife fauna and various evil humans, restoring ownership to her mines in the serial's 15th and final chapter, "The Tiger Face."
