Straw roof houses "Panama, 1926"

Item

Title
Straw roof houses "Panama, 1926"
Photographer
Likely, Mark Jefferson
Description
Photograph of straw roof houses located in Panama in 1926. The houses are constructed of vertical boards and the straw roofs are almost conical. Palm trees and other vegetation surrounds the houses and clothes dry on a line outside. A child can be seen standing in the doorway. Jefferson would often use the same negative to create a lantern slide as well as a mounted stereographic card. When possible we have indicated if it is a repeat image, however this is not always the case. As such, there may be a corresponding digitized glass lantern slide, and a mounted stereographic card associated with this stereographic negative within the Mark Jefferson Collection.
