State Library of Queensland said:
There is some doubt as to the correct spelling to Dick’s surname. George Richard Rogers or George Richard Rodgers In the Australia War Memorial records (Boer War Nominal roll) and Australians serving in the Boer War (members.iinet.net.au/~perthdps/military/index.html) he is named: George Richard Rogers Service number: 346 Rank: Private Unit: 5 (QLD IMPERIAL BUSHMEN) CNTGNT Departed: March 6, 1901. Returned: April 30, 1902. But in a newspaper article of the time he is described as George Richard Rodgers - nla.gov.au/nla.news-article21254456

I would also wish to comment that I'm not sure this would have been in Capetown but rather in Durban... The rickshaw was a popular mode of transport in Durban were the local Zulu people were more often employed to do such work. In Capetown the local peoples were comprised of Cape Malay and Hottentot peoples and this gentleman is not from one of these peoples...

This picture was taken from the southwest corner of the intersection of Calle de la Luna and Calle de San Jose in Old San Juan (facing north on San Jose). Is there a way to directly add geolocation tags to the pictures in this collection? question answered & geolocation tags included

¡Maravillosa! This is the first non B&W photo I see of San Juan during this period. What color and crispness! Jack Delano not only was a wonderful photographer but a very gifted musician who arrived in Puerto Rico as a Federal Government employee, felt in love with the country, its folklore and its people and never left. His contribution to Puerto Rican culture in terms of arts and music is incalculable.
