1905ref. 231541905. Texas HistoryBorderlands U.S.-Mexico borderlands photograph album 1905-1906 centered on El Paso and Juárez with additional views in New Mexico Arizona California Oregon and Alaska. The album documents an early twentieth-century traveler's movement through the southern border of the U.S. when El Paso and Ciudad Juárez were being promoted through rail travel tourism and cross-border entertainment and when American visitors regularly treated Mexican religious sites plazas bullrings and street life as part of a border excursion circuit. Its strongest historical value lies in the concentration of images tied to the Texas-Mexico border including Juárez bullfight and cockfight scenes street and church views and domestic group portraits in El Paso alongside a labeled photograph of a Santo Domingo Pueblo corn dance likely Kewa Pueblo north of Albuquerque showing non-Native travelers recording Indigenous life in the Southwest. Photograph album containing 81 original photographs most measuring approximately 2 x 3 to 4 x 5 inches mounted on thick black paper leaves in a cloth-bound album. Contemporary manuscript captions identify numerous locations and subjects including "El Paso Tex" "Juarez Mex" "Bull Fight" "Cock Fight" "Near Albuquerque 1906" "1906 New Mexico" "New Mexico 1905" "Juarez Mex Church over 350 years old" and "Corn Dance. Santo Domingo." Visible subjects include family and social group portraits posed on porches and in front of residences; women in white dresses and men in coats hats and ties; a tree-lined park path in El Paso; religious architecture and church interiors in Juárez; a fountain identified as Robinson Park in Albuquerque; river and landscape views labeled Rio Grande; a saguaro cactus study; a donkey; a seated elderly woman in a doorway; and multiple arena photographs showing matadors horses attendants spectators and ring action in Juárez. Several photographs bear later ink inscriptions including one later image of five men captioned "Alaska" en recto and with names on verso including "Mayor Goldstein" a prominent Jewish businessman and six time Juneau Mayor Isadore Goldstein. The album records border travel encompassing scenes of domestic life in El Paso tourism in Juárez and excursions into New Mexico and the wider West. The Juárez images are especially strong preserving direct vernacular views of public spectacle in the bullring and cockfight pit as well as church architecture and urban settings seen from the perspective of a visiting American observer. Photographs mounted throughout; some images faded or silvered with scattered surface wear corner wear occasional discoloration and a few later annotations or tape remnants visible. Overall very good condition. unknown

1916ref. 221871916. Photographs of United States Army troops along the U.S.-Mexico border circa 1916 document military operations associated with the Pancho Villa Expedition led by John J. Pershing and record the deployment of cavalry and artillery units during a period of heightened border conflict. Produced in field conditions these images capture soldiers equipment and encampments in arid terrain providing direct visual evidence of U.S. military logistics mounted patrols and cross-border mobilization during the Mexican Border War. The archive supports research into early twentieth century warfare U.S.-Mexico relations and the operational structure of pre-World War I American military forces. Archive consists of approximately twenty two original silver gelatin photographs most measuring about 3.25 x 5.5 inches with several larger examples including some printed on postcard stock. The images depict cavalrymen in standard issue M1912 wool field shirts campaign hats riding boots and wrap puttees posed on horseback and alongside artillery equipment. Multiple photographs show tent encampments supply convoys horse and mule trains and field kitchens distributed across desert landscapes. One recurring unidentified soldier appears in several images including a view at a marked "Continental Divide Elevation 6900 ft Tombstone 25 Miles" and another near a roadside marker reading "Road constructed by Prison Labor A.D 1913-1914." Artillery scenes include horse drawn caissons transporting field guns and a close view of a 3 inch M1902 field gun with spoked wooden wheels and riveted barrel. Additional images show soldiers positioned beside artillery pieces and within organized camp environments documenting both operational readiness and daily military life. These photographs were created during a period when the U.S. Army relied heavily on mounted units and animal powered transport prior to widespread mechanization and they record the logistical demands of sustaining military presence across the borderlands. The Punitive Expedition marked a significant moment in U.S. military modernization as lessons learned from these operations informed subsequent participation in World War I. The images also document the physical infrastructure of border militarization including constructed roads and encampments within a contested geopolitical region. Minor edge wear and handling creases consistent with field use; images remain clear and well preserved; overall very good condition. This archive provides concentrated visual documentation of U.S. Army field operations and border conflict during a formative moment in American military history. unknown
