In New York City 1927, The Holland Tunnel opened allowing automobile traffic to drive under the bedrock of the Hudson River, linking New York and New Jersey via roadbed. Charles Lindbergh flew across the Atlantic from New York to Paris. A man named Babe Ruth moved from Boston to New York to work on Murders Row for the New York Yankees. The Jazz Singer was being hailed as the birth of the talkies.

In Mexico 1927 there was a counter-revolution against the government in a revolt that became knows as The Cristero War. In Mexico City, the first experimental theater, Teatro Ulses, literally the Odysseus Theater, a fifty seat theater which had a short life, laid the foundation for the future of Mexican Theater. The Silent Film that was breaking barriers in Mexico in 1927 was El puño de hierro (The Iron Fist), a startling look at drug addiction and trafficking told by blending social commentary with adventure and surrealism. The rise of the Performing Arts in Mexico coincided with the rise of the world's most famous Theater District, Broadway, in New York City, where Mehron Makeup was gaining a following among the Performers of Studio and Stage.
In 1927 Mehron Makeup was not available to the Performing Artists in Mexico.

Like the New York Yankees, Mehron Makeup continues over eighty years later expanding its product line and distribution network worldwide.
