189821219591898. New York The Evening Post Job Printing House. Dated December 26 1898. 4to. Original printed wrappers; pp. 38 20 plates after photographs large folding sections in red and black large folding map in red and black; spine with few restorations small marginal flaw to front wrappers wire-stitched as issued with oxidization to wire-stitching; a very good copy of a great rarity presented to one Albert de Colomb with ink inscription to front wrapper.Very rare first edition. The first attempt to build the canal started under the leadership of Ferdinand de Lesseps proved to be a failure and the company collapsed in 1889. 'Although the company reorganized in 1894 it virtually ceased to function by 1898. Any possibility of completing the canal across Panama was gone; its sole hope lay in holding together an enterprise that could be offered for sale' Enyclopaedia Britannica. This rare document was compiled the by the International Technical Commission and assesses the possibility of resuming work which finally after difficult diplomatic negotiations and under the pressure of the United Stated and mainly supported by Roosevelt could be completed in 1914. An estimated 20000 lives were lost during the construction but the canal changed international shipping trade and the flow of goods for ever. unknown

1900225611900. Latin America Panama City and the Canal Zone at the beginning of the 20th century photo archive featuring a range of architectural infrastructural and cultural subjects reflecting the western urbanization and colonial history of the area. Archive of 15 sepia toned real photo postcards. Each 3.5" x 5.5". The archive documents the transformation of Panama during the era of U.S. construction and administration of the Panama Canal and the subsequent urban growth of the capital. Many are captioned at the bottom in the negative.<br /> <br /> The collection includes multiple views of the Panama Canal itself such as "Opening Gates Pedro Miguel Locks" "Miraflores Locks Panama Canal" and a wide-angle vista from the Pacific side capturing the engineering marvel that reshaped global commerce. Urban scenes emphasize both civic life and colonial remnants: the "American Cabaret" façade crowded with pedestrians the Panama City railway station with carriages at its entrance and the Cathedral Plaza shown both from street-level and aerial perspectives. Religious heritage appears in the richly photographed "Golden Altar of San José" a baroque altar famously saved from pirate depredation by being painted black. Other views include the Old Spanish Fort tower ruins panoramic shots of the city grid ships moored in Balboa harbor and even the bullfighting ring situating Panama as both modernizing and deeply layered with colonial past. Minor handling wear and faint edge toning to some images remain crisp and clean. Overall very good condition. This archive offers a rich visual record of Panama at a pivotal historical moment combining imagery of U.S. imperial engineering with local cultural life and colonial heritage making it a valuable resource for scholars of Latin American history U.S.-Panama relations and the history of global infrastructure. unknown
