THIS IS THE LAST OF 18 WEB PAGES housing 171 of 179 (with 8 missing) of the State Department's collection of historic photographs & visual images on the November 1928 Nicaraguan elections.  

     The next 100 or so USNA2 photo pages will house high-resolution digital scans of the 1,000 or so photographs on Nicaragua in Record Group 127, Records of the United States Marine Corps.  This is far & away the biggest & most important collection of photographs taken by the US military in Nicaragua during this period, and it begins on the next page.   (Photo: US National Archives II, College Park, MD)
