  • Janet Lindenmuth said:
    Anton Mente was an Austro-Hungarian immigrant who was arrested in New York in 1915 and accused of plotting to plant bombs. select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F2071EF6385B1773... He denied the charges but eventually pleaded guilty to "violating the Tenement House Act" and was sentenced to one year in prison. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F70A13FE3B5B17738... I can't find any mention of what happened to him after that.

    I don't like you José you go around amazing imagery for profit purposes. Is sort sad you will come out witch such a prestige name and have that twisted by standards. You are not a nationalized entity so you are falsely representing. I don’t really care who you are but at least form a nonprofit and use the imagery accordingly for conservation and historic purposes.
  • ARCHIVO HISTORICO Y FOTOGRAFICO DE PUERTO RICO said:
