Description: Images of an unidentified man examining a newspaper on a podium-style desk with a large salon in the background. This salon, staffed by a large number of writers sitting at desks with typewriters, appears to show a large newspaper office, for its size, possibly Diario de la Marina, which was housed in a large building on Prado, directly facing the Capitolio. This was the first national newspaper to be occupied by militias loyal to the government and nationalized for supporting counterrevolutionary activities in May of 1960. See also Print 9 and Contact Book 10.
