1930WRCAM55194San Antonio: E.O. Goldbeck National Photo & News Service 1930. Two panoramic photographs 10 x 48 1/2 inches and 10 x 34 1/2 inches. Minor edge wear and creasing. Very good. An interesting pair of panoramic photographs relating to the Panama Canal Zone around 1930. The photographs were produced by the prolific panoramist E.O. Goldbeck during one of his many jaunts to record American military installations in exotic locales. One is dated June 1930 but it is reasonable to assume Goldbeck photographed both subjects around the same time since the Panama Canal Zone is no short trip from San Antonio. The pair of panoramas include: <br> <br> 1 CULEBRA CUT - PANAMA CANAL ZONE. 10 x 48 1/2 inches. A well-composed image showing a steamship rounding a corner of the Culebra Cut an artificial valley cutting through the Continental Divide in Panama and one of the greatest engineering projects of the late- 19th and early-20th centuries. Begun in 1881 by the French and not finished until 1913 by the United States the Culebra Cut known for most of its life as the Gaillard Cut is an eight-mile-long artificial channel forming part of the Panama Canal. It connects Gatun Lake to the Gulf of Panama providing a link from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The Culebra Cut resulted from the blasting and excavation of the Culebra mountains by 6000 workers employing hundreds of steam drills and shovels 60 million pounds of dynamite and thousands of trains loaded with debris and bound for landfill dumps. The present image captures the awesome scope of the project completed less than twenty years earlier. <br> <br> 2 FT. AMADOR. C.Z. JUNE 1930. CAPT. R.J. VAN BUSKIRK. COMDG. 10 x 34 1/2 inches. A panoramic photograph featuring Company B of the 65th Air Defense Artillery Regiment of the United States Army. The 65th regiment was active in providing air defense in the Panama Canal Zone from July 1924 to April 1932. Fort Amador was primarily an infantry and artillery support base providing air defense to American merchant ships traveling through the Pacific side of the Panama Canal. The image captures over eighty members of Company B ranged on each side of their trophies and their regimental guidon. <br> <br> A complementary pair of panoramic photographs highlighting the scale of the project in the Culebra Cut and American military interests in the Panama Canal Zone in the interwar period.

Typographical border. Card verso with departure dates for Japan Hong Kong Sydney Auckland & PNW ports. 5-13/16" x 3-1/4" <br/><br/>The Pacific Mail Steamship Company was founded in 1848 as a joint stock company under the laws of the State of New York. The company founders had acquired the right to transport mail under contract from the United States Government from the Isthmus of Panama to California. The company initially believed it would be transporting agricultural goods from the West Coast but just as operations began gold was discovered in California and business boomed almost from the start. During the California Gold Rush in 1849 the company was a key mover of goods and people and played a key role in the growth of San Francisco California. In 1867 the company launched the first regularly scheduled trans-Pacific steamship service with a route between San Francisco Hong Kong and Yokohama and extended service to Shanghai. This route led to an influx of Japanese and Chinese immigrants bringing additional cultural diversity to California. A rare survivor from the era documenting the firm's Far East routes. unknown books
