MAXIMO GOMEZ – EARLY 1900s STYLE VINTAGE MOUNTED PHOTO – CUBAN GENERAL
Offered for sale is an old mounted photographic portrait identified by its handwritten inscription as General Máximo Gómez Báez, a prominent military leader in Cuba's struggle for independence.
The photograph features a seated portrait with the handwritten name "Máximo Gómez" and what appears to be the date "1883" along the lower edge.
Estimated period: Possibly early 20th century (1900s–1930s), although the actual printing date has not been verified. The date 1883 may refer to the original portrait rather than the production date of this particular photographic print.
Approximate size: 6 x 4 inches, including cardboard mount.
Condition: The photograph is mounted on aged cardboard with decorative scalloped edges. It shows visible discoloration, fading, staining, scratches, surface wear, and age-related deterioration. Please review all photographs carefully.
This is an interesting historical collectible for enthusiasts of Cuban independence, antique photography, and Latin American history.
Please note: The exact age, printing process, and authenticity as a period photographic print have not been professionally verified. No claim is made that the photograph was printed in 1883 or that the inscription is an original autograph.
You will receive the exact item shown in the photographs. It will be carefully packaged for shipping.
