Description
The crowd, officials, a naval unit, unidentified civilians and reporters gathered for the arrival of the Soviet delegation led by Anastas Mikoyan to Havana in early February 1960. Frames 27-35 show Che Guevara with an unidentified blond man wearing glasses (see also Prints 62 and 79), as well as Raúl Roa, Minister of Foreign Relations, standing to the blond man's left. Frames 19-22 show two foreign reporters, one of them Chinese, the other American. Bottom two rows of frames show scenes from the Soviet Expo, held at the Museo de Bellas Artes in Havana, and inaugurated by Mikoyan on February 5, 1960. The top two rows of images are a duplicate of the images that appear on a strip in the folder that contains Print 79. These frames show an enormous crowd gathered at the airport, as well as Fidel Castro surrounded by reporters and officials.
