Description

Postcard image of a side view of the Catedral de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico - a Catholic Church. This is a south - southwest perspective of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. The address for the Cathedral is on the corner of Calle Venustiano Carranza and 101 Vicente Guerrero, Ciudad Juarez. The immediate street in front of this image is Calle 16 de Septiembre which borders the Cathedral on the north side. The long square building in the foreground is no longer there and it has since been replaced by the new modern Cathedral which was completed in the early 1960's. On the street there is a shaded sitting area where people are sitting. The church and the square building both have bullet hole damage. This image was taken late in the afternoon because the shadows are long and towards the east. One man sits and one man stands in front of the tin roofed wood structured news stand which is next to the shaded sitting area. Some of the advertisement signage on the news stand reads as follows: Orquesta para baile [Dance orchestra]; En esta Oficina se Venden Las Perdiodicos Mas Baratos [The cheapest newspapers are sold in this office]; and Se Hacen Composturas En Instrumentos de Madera [Repairs are made on wooden instruments].
