18183189Havana 1818. Good. Broadside 11.75 x 8 inches. Heavily tanned. An apparently unrecorded Havana imprint comprising a broadside authorization for increased funding to be extended to the superintendent of Havana so that he can maximize the potential of the island's tobacco plantations. This credit is matched by the superintendent’s promise to use the money "con el preciso destino de comprar y remitir á España las mayores cantidades posibles de este género." The superintendent must also swear to be vigilant and honest in his account-taking reports to Spain and "Avise con toda la anticipacion posible los acopios y compras que verifique à proporcion que tenga de hacerlos y probabilidad en las remesas con seguridad aprovechándo todas las ocasiones que se le presenten para remitir cigarros y hoja de buena calidad á la Peninsula aunque sea con bandera extrangera." Signed in print and rubricated in manuscript by Pedro Carambot a Cuban official of the late 1810s. Not in OCLC. unknown

1920224751920. Cuba Havana landmarks and urban development real photo post card archive ca. 1920s-1940s. 11 color and sepia real photo postcards of iconic civic and cultural architecture in Havana Cuba. Each measure 4" x 6". Many with captions identifying the locations in the negative or en verso with some printed in English and others in Spanish signaling their intended audience of both locals and foreign tourists. A compelling photo archive documenting early 20th-century Havana's architectural and political aspirations this collection showcases prominent landmarks that symbolized Cuba's nationalist identity international cosmopolitanism and American-influenced modernization in the decades between independence from Spain and the Cuban Revolution. The archive includes silver gelatin and printed color views of the National Theatre Cuba's Capitol Building Central Railway Station Gran Casino Nacional National University and the grand gateway of Havana's Colón Cemetery. Other views depict Paseo de Martí one of Havana's most iconic boulevards lined with vintage American cars and flanked by ornate colonial facades and new Art Deco-style hotels evidence of the influx of U.S. capital and tourism during the Batista era. Havana in this period was rapidly transforming into a showcase city of the Caribbean its urban core reflecting both Spanish colonial heritage and American urban planning models. The presence of monumental buildings like El Capitolio constructed between 1926 and 1929 and modeled after the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C. points to Cuba's alignment with American political aesthetics and aspirations toward modern statehood. Similarly the University and Gran Casino Nacional represent both the intellectual elite and leisure-class investment that typified pre-revolutionary Cuban society. The mixture of European and U.S. architectural influences ranging from Beaux-Arts to Art Deco speaks to the layered colonial legacy and new economic dependency forged during the Platt Amendment era. Some mild edge wear. One card with a small corner crease others clean. Overall very good condition. This archive captures Havana in the midst of dramatic urban renewal and internationalization before the massive ruptures brought on by the 1959 revolution. unknown
1870231221870. Slavery Cuba Spanish colonial slave sale manuscript recording the transfer of four enslaved individuals in Cuba in 1870. Produced within the official bureaucratic framework of Spanish colonial governance the document reflects the legal normalization of slavery in Cuba even as abolitionist pressures mounted across the Atlantic world. The document records the sale of four enslaved people described as "criollos" and African-born individuals situating the transaction within a labor system that combined locally born and imported enslaved populations. Created at a time when Spain had formally restricted the transatlantic slave trade but continued to permit slavery itself the manuscript demonstrates the persistence of legalized human commodification and the integration of enslaved labor into the island's economic structure sixteen years prior to abolition in 1886.<br /> <br /> Official Cuban slave contract documenting the sale of four enslaved individuals to Don Pedro Catasús by Don Enfemia Ochoa for the sum of 1100 pesos on November 29 1870. Single manuscript leaf written in Spanish cursive in black ink measuring 8.25" x 12". A green "50 cs de escudo" revenue stamp is affixed at the top center with a blind embossed Spanish crest at the upper left and a circular black ink government seal impressed at the lower left. Large vertical docketing appears on the verso. A stylized watermark is visible within the paper. The text organizes the enslaved individuals within a standardized transactional structure while the signatures of Enfemia Ochoa Pedro Catasús and A. Díaz de Rada authenticate the exchange and identify participants within the slaveholding economy.<br /> <br /> By 1870 Cuba remained a central node in the late Atlantic slave system with plantation agriculture especially sugar dependent on enslaved labor despite mounting abolitionist pressure. Although Spain had curtailed official slave imports earlier in the century illegal trafficking persisted into the 1860s and other coerced labor systems including the importation of Chinese indentured workers overlapped with slavery into the 1870s. The presence of both Creole and African individuals in this document reflects the layered composition of the enslaved population during this period. Light toning scattered foxing and edge wear visible. A closed wormhole extends from the upper right margin approximately five inches into the sheet resulting in partial loss of text. Evidence of prior tape reinforcement visible on the verso along with offsetting from previously adjacent material. Overall in very good condition. This document provides named transactional evidence of late-period slavery in Cuba offering concrete material for examining race labor and legal practice within Spanish colonial society. unknown
