Production

Liberty, a Daughter of the USA was the first purely Western serial, although Western elements were included in earlier serials such as The Perils of Pauline (1914). A print of Liberty was one of the primary footage sources used for the compilation film The Revenge of Pancho Villa (1930–36).
