  The men in the picture may be Cubans but I would guess they aren't "native" as in indigenous as they all look of either African or European descent. I just love all these pictures..

  Thanks for the enthusiastic affirmation, Glass Window! I'll pass it on to the uploaders. Unfortunately, all of the color images from the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information pictures have already been uploaded, so there won't be more of those.

  I was worried as such. Thanks for sending my word along.
