ALFREDO
SALDIVAR
MONUMENTO
A LA REVOLUCION - MEXICO CITY
by
Thomas Yanul - Page 3
MEXICO
CITY, ABOUT 1930. SHOWING STRUCTURE THAT BECAME THE REVOLUTION MONUMENT.
AS
YOU CAN SEE BY THE PHOTOS, THIS HOME APPEARS TO BE AT THE END OF THE BLOCK
ADJACENT
TO
THE OLD UNFINISHED PARLIAMENT STRUCTURE. IT IS THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS
A
MIDDLE OR UPPER CLASS AREA AT THE TIME, AND THE FAMILY SHOWN HAS SOME CONNECTION
TO
ALFREDO
SALDIVAR, WHO IS THOUGHT TO BE MAKING THE PHOTOGRAPHS.
THE
MATRONLY WOMAN POSSIBLY THE MOTHER TO THE WOMAN, AND GRANDMOTHER OF THE THE
CHILDREN
. I WOULD LIKE TO IDENTIFY THE PEOPLE WHO LIVED IN THIS HOME AT THE TIME.
CAN
ANYONE
IDENTIFY WHAT STREET OR LOCATION THIS HOME WAS AT THE TIME OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
?
Neg
envelope is marked " C. Miramon Casa"
IN
ABOVE PHOTO, THE OLD PARLIAMENT
STRUCTURE
CAN BE SEEN THROUGH THE TREE
AND
ABOVE THE ROOFLINE. I THINK VIEW IS
LOOKING
EAST.
