Abstract:
Album contains views of Ubero Plantation Co. grounds and vicinity in Isthmus of Tehuantepec, Mexico. Views show indigenous
persons who worked on plantation, their villages, and the surrounding towns and landscapes of the Coatzacoalcos River region.
Photos also depict rubber and coffee plants, pineapple fields and plantation buildings. An emphasis seems to be placed on
the dress and customs of the local indigenous population.
