Creator: Aultman, Otis A.
Description: Photograph of Mexican Insurrectos taking aim at the Mexican Army. Obviously this photograph does not show the Mexican Army but it is logical to assume that is who this group of Insurrectos is firing at. The exact location of this photograph is not known however this group of Insurrectos is somewhere in the Mexico desert. Judging by the level of their rifles the enemy must have been very far away. A total of eight Insurrectos can be seen in this photograph.

American Journalist

American Journalist

Date: 1910/1920
Creator: Aultman, Otis A.
Description: Photograph of two American Journalist covering the Mexican Revolution. The information on the back of the photograph reads as follows: "Mexico - Revolution - Newsmen” The newsmen are identified as the two men in the center of the photograph. There is no information given about the identities of the newsmen or about the two Mexican men that they appear to be traveling with. Since all four men are carrying guns it appears that this group is all traveling together. Since the Mexican men are not heavily loaded with ammunition they do not appear to be insurrectos. The Mexican men were most likely hired by the newsmen as guides to take them into Mexico. Two shadows can also be seen in the bottom front part of this image. One shadow belongs to Aultman and the other shadow remains a mystery.
