Battle of Juarez, Insurrectos on irrigation ditch (LOC)

  • Jesús Roberto Duarte said:
    This photo matches with another Bains News picture entitled "federal barricade captured by insurrectos". They show the same place. Taken on Lerdo avenue; it´s a isoseles triangle shaped block (whose base is Vicente Guerrero street), Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico. I'd like to ad a photo that depicts how it looks today, but don't know how to. Dr. Roberto Duarte

    @Dr. Roberto Duarte: To add a photo here, first post it on your own Flickr stream, then highlight and copy its URL. Next, paste the URL in your comment box on this page (the one you've used above, or a new one). Enclose the link in square brackets [ ], and it will appear as a photo here (but only if it links to a photo already on Flickr). As examples, I have copied the above photo here: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2162705877/in/p... And the other Lerdo Avenue photo you mentioned, here: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2163463378/

    La caballería era el arma más temible del ejército mexicano.
  • Jesús Roberto Duarte said:
    A estas tropas por el color de sus camisas y quepíes se les llamaba "amarillos", eran fieles al ejército federal de Don Porfirio. Dr. Roberto Duarte
  • Jesús Roberto Duarte said:
    The stream of men from left to right flows from south to north, El Paso is behint the bull ring. The pipes and smoke plume should be El Paso smelter.
  • Jesús Roberto Duarte said:
    Found in El Paso Herald issue February 22, 1911 (The Library of Congress, Chronicling America) an article that mentions the soldiers where moved from Juárez bullring to another quarter behind the customs house. Is it possible the Call Nr. locates this picture on February 1911? Dr. Roberto Duarte
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    Dr. Duarte: While it is quite possible this photograph does date from February 1911, we cannot be positive, as the Bain News Service did not always number their negatives chronologically. Often that is the case in the collection, but not all the time. This is a very interesting piece of information you have found, though, and may be an explanation for the activity shown. We can add more details than are currently present in the record. Thank you!
