- Based on St. George's own submission notes enclosed in this file, these images show the Minoffs at the casino at the Hotel Caprí, entirely deserted of all tourists, which is located on the famous street called La Rampa that connects the central area surrounding the University of Havana to the Malecón, or sea wall. The only people sitting in the casino besides the Minoffs and the dealer are two off-duty showgirls from the nightclub at El Caprí and what he calls a "b-girl," or free-lance and high-class prostitute.

- Description:
- The cooperative "Camilo Cienfuegos," taken at Christmas 1959, shortly after the government announced its decision to cancel payment of traditional Christmas bonuses to sugar workers. Instead, the government offered to sponsor collective Christmas dinners for workers in plantation cafeterias by providing four million dollars in credits for financing. St. George's film submission note, enclosed in this folder, confirms the circumstances of these images. Taken from the backseat of a government jeep, the top row of frames shows an INRA official sitting low in the seat while speaking to an agitated peasant. The driver relaxes his arm along the back of the seat. According to St. George's note, these frames show a "typical" encounter in which a local peasant approaches the jeep and complains directly to the official about conditions on the cooperative with the expectation that his problems might be solved in the "personalistic" fashion reminiscent of the days when peasants similarly complained to the patron (capitalist owner of the plantation).

- Description:
- According to St. George's enclosed submission sheet, the images show Cuban government soldiers and stevedores loading a Soviet cargo vessel docked in Santiago's harbor, Oriente Province, with sacks of sugar bound for the Soviet Union. St. George, along with Mallin, was probably not authorized to take these pictures, and may have used a proxy photographer as he refers to the pictures as "sneak shots" and apologizes for their quality.
