Algie, the Miner is a 1912 American silent Western film produced by Solax Studios. It was directed by Harry Schenck, Edward Warren, and Alice Guy and stars Billy Quirk, with Clarice Jackson as Miss Lyons.[1] The film was advertised as: "A real live western comedy, showing how a sissy boy won his sweetheart's hands by going out west and making a man of himself".[2]

During the early days of motion pictures one-reel films, approximately ten-minutes long, were made to be shown as part of a variety show, either in vaudeville theaters, along with live acts featuring singers or comedians, or at a nickelodeon movie theater where the audience paid five cents to view a half-hour of short films.[3] Algie the Miner was shown at both types of theaters.[4][5]
