Villa, Raoul Madero (LOC)

  • Politisaurio said:
    Oh, when I read photo title I thought it referred to Francisco I. Madero, but no, it's his brother, Raúl, who join to Pancho Villa's revolutionary forces. He died at 94, in 1982. I didn't know, but was interesting investigate that!

    Bystanders in the background of the photo have all been retouched out of existence, except for a lad (and another spectator) whose eyes poke up just behind Pancho Villa's left shoulder. _____________________________________________________ PANCHO VILLA'S ARRANGEMENT WITH MUTUAL FILM CO.: "In January 1914, Pancho Villa became Hollywood's first Mexican superstar when he signed an exclusive contract with the Mutual Film Corporation. In return for $25,000, he agreed to keep other film companies from his battlefield, to fight in daylight whenever possible, and to reconstruct battles if the footage needed reshooting. "Now the subject of an HBO film starring Antonio Banderas (And Starring Pancho Villa as Himself), Villa is one of the main protagonists in Margarita de Orellana's vivid account of the American movie industry's fascination with the events of the Mexican Revolution. "Through memoir accounts, newspaper reports, and analysis of the films themselves, "Filming Pancho" reveals much about how Mexico was constructed in the American imagination and how the film images reinforced and justified American expansionism and racial and social prejudices." --From a description, on Amazon, of a documentary movie of Hollywood's treatment of the Mexican Revolution. (The DVD is available for purchase from various Amazon vendors.)

    Rodolfo Fierro is correctly identified on this Bain/LOC/Mutal photo: Other Bain/LOC photos of Pancho Villa, inscribed with a Mutual Film Corporation copyright notice: And Mrs. Pancho Villa: More Mexican Revolution coverage by the Mutual Film Co.:
  • Jesús Roberto Duarte said:
    Rodolfo Fierro is not plucking a feather. He´s going to tie a knife in cock´s ankle. During the fight the cocks keep kicking each other untill one of them gets killed. Raúl Madero seems holding money in his hand, probably betting money. Most of the time the fight is "el giro" (white) against "el colorado" (red). Dr. Roberto Duarte

Is it a dog, is it a cat, is it a chicken in a hat?

    "THE COURTHOUSE.
    Todays Court House and Heritage Centre now stands where an original building was built in 1735 as a barracks to accommodate a half company of soldiers but was also used also as a Court House from these early days. In the early part of the 19th century a Revenue Office was opened here and then during the famine an overflow of 120 people from the Work House were housed in the upper third story of the building.
    During the same era General Sessions of the Peace were held in June and December and Petty Sessions the first Monday in every fortnight. A special court was also held every three weeks for the recovery of debts not exceeding ten pounds.
    The building was burned down during 1920 and rebuilt and opened again in 1927. ..."

    Patrick Comerford is interesting about the three-arched Market House (and cottages out of sight behind).

    I see two dogs, but the white animal in the right foreground is a chicken, pecking.

    The hills look Kerryesque...
  • Swordscookie said:
    Mike I think Woesinger is right in the notes, that struck me as a tidal area past the last of the houses and the feel I got from it was as Niall McAuley says, very Kerryesque. Were they firkins of butter I wonder or barrels of stout? Nice photograph and the keystone image is very unusual.
  • Woesinger said:
    I've a feeling this is Castletownbere.... Not quite the same viewpoint, but the layout and pub is similar. maps.google.ie/?ll=51.651525,-9.910526&spn=0.007003,0... Corroborating evidence (which is what put me on to Castletownbere) - in 1901, there was a Daniel Moriarty, shopkeeper, living in Castletownbere. On further investigation, he did indeed own a public house. www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Cork/Killaconen... Very circumstantial, but the layout of the town, the background and the pub seem to match.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Woesinger That looks very like it alright. The estuary appears closer in the old shot but it looks just right. Is that Kingstons on the left of the picture? Perhaps we can verify it from that? Here's another view that might support your hypothesis? maps.google.ie/?ll=51.651525,-9.910526&spn=0.007003,0...
