A Spanish-American village in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains dating back to 1700 which was once a sheep raising center, Trampas, Taos County, New Mexico. Due to the over-grazing and loss of range title, its inhabitants now work as migrato

    Is not a Spanish-American. Is Mexican American, as you may remember.

Choice Old Port

  • 3 older comments, and then…
  • Alek Nowak said:
    Perhaps: "Finings are substances that are usually added at or near the completion of the processing of brewing wine, beer and various nonalcoholic juice beverages. Their purpose is for removal of organic compounds; to either improve clarity or adjust flavor/aroma." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finings Also, the date of the photograph may be few years later than on the barrel - Port wine often undergoes barrel-aging from 10 or less to 40 years...
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Alek Nowak Thank you very much for the Finings info. Had considered that it might be older because of the date on the barrels (alcohol maturing, etc.), but we have a very finite set of photos of this establishment, and from how Poole Photographers usually operated (plus the clothing), I'd feel fairly confident this one was taken around the same time as the other two...

    blackpoolbeach Thanks, interesting! If we come across any more Druggist/Chemist shop windows, will keep an eye out for sticky plasters on display - Band-Aid or otherwise.

War correspondent Earl Crotchett on crutches on the steps of a hotel in Townsville, 1942

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    American Earl Crotchett, a cameraman for Universal Newsreels, was one of many overseas war correspondents operating in Australia during WWII. Earl was wounded in New Guinea by a Japanese bomb that was dropped on '17 mile airstrip' (Durand Airfield 17 miles from Port Moresby) during the Buna Campaign in late 1942. In this photo you can see his friends signing names to his plaster cast, on the steps of the Queens Hotel in Townsville which was used as accommodation for officers in World War II. During WWII, 'foxhole journalism' developed, focusing on accounts close to the action, and this saw large numbers of journalists killed and wounded. To date the Honour Roll of Australian journalists, photographers, cameramen and crew killed in action holds 32 names. Sixteen of those died reporting in conflict zones during WWII.
