About this Item
Photograph album with 52 black and white photographs of a trip through 1930s Mexico. Photographs measure 3.5" x 2.5" and album measures 10" x 7". Ten leaves of photographs, 21 leaves bound in the album, black paper. Brown faux-leather binding with a design in blind on the front cover, gold lettering on the front cover, bound with a brown tie. With some handwritten captions in white ink. One of the first photographs depicts the traveling party, which was largely composed of older people. An English school in Mexico City is shown, with the hotel the party stayed at, along with the Pyramid of the Sun, the Taxco Silver Mine, landscapes and vistas, paddle boats, Xochimilco, Cuernavaca, cacti, Chapultepec Castle, a flower market, a farmer's market, and several Indigenous individuals. An Indigenous family and a young child are particularly visible in two of the photographs. The final leaf and the rear pastedown each have a map of Mexico City and the surrounding area. The trip was taken largely in Mexico City with excursions to its environs. The album constitutes a visually striking record of Mexico City in the late 1930's. Very good+ condition overall.
