195872030Havana: Santos Foto ca. 1958. Original Cuban Revolution era photograph showing a seated group of five people. 9 1/2 x 7 3/4 inches. In the center is a soldier very much trying to look like Che Guevara with a full beard and mustache in army cloths and hat and holding a rifle. Seated on either side of him are two couples all in street clothes and each of the men is holding a rifle. The guns appear to be Thompson M1 A1s which would place this photograph at the beginning of the Revolution before Soviet weapons were commonplace. The photographer Santos Foto Habana is identified in the plate and stamped on the rear. Ironically this picture is laid into a Empire Room Waldorf Astoria printed folder. It should be noted that Che Guevara once worked as a dishwasher at the Waldorf so this pairing is probably intentional. Santos Foto hardcover

1913List3218Brooklyn New York: The Albertype Co 1913. Photo album of twenty-five 12 ½ x 10 inch pages containing fifty 8 x 6 inch photographs with cardstock cover. Cover and pages worn with marginal damage; pages mostly detached from string binding; photos with captions on negative; Near Fine with Fine contrast. Overall excellent to Near Fine. After the Spanish American War the Isle of Pines now Isla de Juventud in Cuba was contested territory because the 1901 Platt Amendment had specifically left ownership of the island up to a future treaty; the 1904 Hay-Quesada Treaty recognizing Cuban sovereignty over the island failed to be ratified by the US until 1925. American citizens controlled ninety-five per cent or more of the island’s land and were strongly in favor of American annexation. <br /> <br /> Offered here is a 1913 photo album exhibiting the island’s lush scenery productive farmland and luxurious American residences and resorts. The American property owners are identified by name and include American Residents and Property Owners’ Association President T.J. Keenan who in 1902 described the island under default administration by the Cuban government as “on the verge of anarchy . American interests are absolutely unprotectedâ€1; H.A. Christy Vice President of the Cincinnati Richmond & Muncie Railroad; coal and coke businessman John F. Atcheson and other elites. There are also shots of a number of hotels; grapefruit banana and pineapple farms belonging to the settlers; and recreation by both automobile and boat.<br /> <br /> Two photographs are not of American ventures: one of the home of José Sarda which housed José Martà before his exile to Spain labeled merely “Nueva Gerona Sarda Homsteadâ€; and one of a house labeled “San Juan Native Homestead†showing a family standing on the porch of their thatched-roof home with an oxcart before them.<br /> <br /> We find four copies of this photo book on OCLC.

1906List3021La Habana Province Republic of Cuba 1906. Twenty-two photographs measuring 7 ¼ x 9 ½ inches mounted on heavy cardstock measuring 10 x 12 inches. Photos numbered and dated on negative. In album embossed with “Havana Central Railroad Co./ Progress Photographs/ GUANAJAYâ€. Photos with fine contrast and some wear; mounts with minor damage slightly warped with some detached from binding. Overall excellent. Havana Central Railroad Company was an American company formed in April 1905. It opened two electric tram lines—Havana to Guanajay in 1906 and Havana to Güines in 1907—before it was bought by the English company United Railways following the Panic of 1907. Offered here is a photo album showing the construction of the Guanajay line. The photographs show laborers assisted by horse-drawn carts digging culverts laying tracks and erecting bridges and buildings.<br /> <br /> This project came on the heels of the successful efforts of the Cuba Company another railroad company to make the emerging Cuban Republic amenable to American business.They did so first by using ‘revocable permits’ which could ostensibly be revoked by the new government when it was formed to circumvent the Foraker Amendment prohibiting concessions to American companies by the US’s military government; and second by using their close relationships to several members of the Cuban Constitutional Convention to include a law allowing irrevocable permits.1 These along with the Platt Amendment and Governor Leonard Wood’s General Railway Law led to what would amount to domination by US interests in Cuba particularly but not exclusively in the railroad industry.2<br /> <br /> Of interest to scholars of the early Republic of Cuba especially the history of US businesses in the country.<br /> <br /> 1 Juan C.

19656257Habana 1965. Very good. 16pp. Oblong pamphlet in original pictorial wrappers stapled. Light wear and toning at wrapper edges with a few faint creases. Internally clean. A visually rich pro-Casto and pro-Communist pamphlet that highlights the history and core activities of Cuba's Committee for the Defense of the Revolution CDR neighborhood-based civil defense organizations created by Castro in 1960 to defend the revolution and maintain social and political control at the local level. This often included activities like surveillance distribution of propaganda and vigilante justice. The pamphlet is illustrated with photos throughout and also contains a two-page spread with maps of the island and charts data and statistics about the Cuban people. It contains a year-by-year account of the Committee's achievements and activities and ends with a section concerning its relations with other countries and their visits to Cuba. The rear wrapper states that editions were published in English French and Spanish as evidenced by the trilingual title on the front cover but we find no evidence of any edition in OCLC. Scarce and with much interesting and propagandized information about Castro's local enforcers during the early years of the Communist regime. unknown
