This volume which describes in prase charts and photos the favorable advantages of 1916 Cuba may be one of the few that exist in the original state---there do not appear to be any offered in the marketplace making it an ideal addition to any collection of historical Cuba-related items.

1925ref. 6159Various places 1925. Very good. Fourteen silver gelatin photographs 8 x 10 inches. Minor wear and soiling. Images generally crisp and clear. A handsome group of photographs possibly taken on someone's holiday through the Caribbean showing scenes in Barbados Martinique the Panama Canal and Guaira Venezuela. Five of the images show Barbados. Of note are a view taken from the water showing the harbor and the local boats with the dock workers; a tree-lined dirt avenue with houses on one side; and a handsome view of locals crossing a bridge with Parliament in the background. Of the four views of Martinique three show Mount Pelee and the fourth is a lovely shot of two local women on a dirt road barefoot and carrying baskets of produce on their heads. The three images of Venezuela are all taken from aboard a ship and show coastline. The two photos of the Panama Canal depict a ship -- presumably the author's vessel -- transiting the locks. Both are well-composed and give an early view of this important technological wonder. A nice group. unknown

1890ref. 208021890. Unidentified photographers two albumen photographs of Black laborers circa 1890s to early 1900s document agricultural and skilled work performed by African Americans in the decades following emancipation when systems of sharecropping and tenant farming structured rural economies across the American South and parts of the Caribbean. These images provide visual evidence of labor organization racial hierarchy and economic dependency that persisted after the formal end of slavery with large groups of Black workers shown in relation to white overseers or employers. One photograph presents approximately forty five Black men gathered around three centrally seated white men emphasizing supervisory roles and social stratification within plantation labor systems. The clothing of the workers including cotton shirts loose trousers and wide brimmed hats reflects adaptation to agricultural work in hot climates while a smaller number of individuals in jackets and pocket watches suggests internal distinctions within Black labor communities. The second image depicts six Black carpenters engaged in coordinated manual work at an outdoor shop indicating the presence of skilled trades alongside agricultural labor. Group of two albumen photographs mounted on original cardstock measuring approximately 8 x 9.5 inches and 10 x 12 inches. The larger photograph shows an outdoor woodworking scene with six men using tools including a hammer and saw working under a thatched structure suggestive of southern or Caribbean environments. The second photograph shows a large assembled group of plantation workers with three white men seated at center. Faint pencil annotations appear in the margins of one mount. Both photographs retain strong compositional clarity with figures arranged to emphasize both collective labor and hierarchical relationships. These photographs contribute to the study of post emancipation Black life by documenting how agricultural dependency and limited access to capital shaped labor conditions into the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The plantation scene illustrates the persistence of racially stratified labor organization while the carpentry image provides evidence of skilled Black tradesmen operating within local economies often without institutional support or pathways to independent enterprise. The visual contrast between collective field labor and artisanal work expands the interpretive scope of the archive situating these images within broader histories of labor race and economic transition following the end of slavery. Edge wear and minor chipping to mounts with noticeable foxing to one image primarily at the margins; images remain legible and structurally intact. Overall good condition. unknown

1867ref. BK0152Barbados: Office of "The Official Gazette" No. 14 Broad Street 1867. 30 pp. with unnumbered index 42 pp. Half leather over cloth boards. Ink ownership inscription "W. Brandford Griffith / 1869" on a preliminary blank. Scattered foxing and light toning. A locally printed manual for the Barbados House of Assembly with the ownership inscription of William Brandford Griffith then both a member of the Assembly and the island's auditor-general. Griffith served in the Assembly from 1861 to 1874 and was appointed auditor-general in 1863; he subsequently held several other colonial offices before becoming governor of the Gold Coast in 1885. The rules numbered through 271 and accompanied by an extensive alphabetical index set out the conduct of the Assembly's public business. The index includes procedures for issuing election writs and returning the names of elected members to the governor and council together with the course to be followed when writs had not been executed. Although published well after emancipation these rules governed an Assembly whose electorate remained restricted by property qualifications. Free men of color had gained voting rights subject to those qualifications in 1831 and Samuel Jackman Prescod entered the Assembly in 1843. Planters and merchants nevertheless continued to dominate both the Assembly and the Legislative Council during the period in which Griffith served.

1914ref. 231551914. Caribbean photograph album likely compiled by a person connected to the Panama Canal Zone and the Caribbean documenting how steamship mobility port circulation and U.S. imperial presence linked Jamaica Venezuela Trinidad Barbados Cuba Puerto Rico the Bahamas Florida and Panama in the years after the canal opened. The felt cover lettered "PANAMA" and bearing the Seal of the Canal Zone places the album within the new travel geography created by U.S. control of the Canal Zone and the canal's 1914 opening when Panama became a central hinge between Atlantic and Pacific movement and a major point of contact between North American travelers and Caribbean port cities. Photos show passengers on steamers and docks markets and streets forts and government buildings and repeated encounters between white visitors and Afro Caribbean and mixed-heritage residents across multiple colonial and semi-colonial settings. Panama Canal Zone travel photograph album. Caribbean and circum-Caribbean locations including Kingston Jamaica; La Guaira and Caracas Venezuela; Trinidad; Key West and Palm Beach Florida; Havana Cuba; Barbados; Panama City Balboa and Colón Panama; Nassau Bahamas; and San Juan Puerto Rico. Likely circa mid 1910s to early 1920s. Oblong felt-covered album measuring 6.5" x 11" with "PANAMA" stitched in large letters on the front cover and photographs pasted to grey leaves. Contains more than 160 black-and-white photographs most approximately 2.5 x 4.5 inches many with handwritten captions identifying locations activities and occasional names. The sequence opens in Kingston with captions including "Kingston JA" and "on the steamer" then moves through island and mainland stops; "Port of Spain Trinidad" "Market at Barbados" "Rapid Transit Barbados" "Havana Cuba" "San Juan Porto Rico" "Morro Castle" "Balboa" and "Colon R.P." Repeated figures especially a young college-aged woman and an older woman appear throughout. Notable images include a group of locals in shallow water at Barbados sifting for tossed coins from rowboats; a large crowd scene in San Juan gathered for what appears to be a public speech or civic event; battlements cannon and stone defenses in Havana; vernacular dwellings and children in impoverished conditions in Balboa; posed visitor photographs in what is labeled a "bull ring"; and numerous street dockside market and architectural views that juxtapose local populations with hotels public buildings ruins and newer urban construction. The album's historical force comes from the way it captures the social landscape of Caribbean travel under early twentieth-century U.S. power. After 1914 the Canal Zone intensified Panama's role within a wider American maritime sphere while Caribbean travel increasingly moved through port infrastructures shaped by empire commerce military strategy and tourism; this album records that world at eye level with photographs of docks steamers fortifications government sites public squares and local street life rather than limiting themselves to family snapshots alone. At the same time the images preserve the unequal human encounters built into that system especially where visitors photograph Black children boatmen market crowds and working neighborhoods as part of the travel experience. Felt cover worn and soiled with losses at edges and stitching strain; leaves brittle with chipping and tears; photographs generally present and legible with silvering fading corner wear and occasional losses or lifting. Overall fair to good condition. A substantial early twentieth-century visual record of Canal Zone connected Caribbean travel with dense captioning and wide geographic reach from Jamaica and Barbados to Havana San Juan and Panama. unknown
