Name/Title

1964/Chalmers: Dominican Republic

Description

A new subsidiary to Andrew Chalmers was created around 1964, called "Corparacion Nacional de Tabaco C por A". It was based at San Domingo, Dominican Republic. Images are of Conato Warehouse at Puexto Plato, and workers at Don Pedro. * From "The Golden Weed" by Peter Mack: "I have seen a scorpion taken out of my bed a few days after I departed from the Dominican Republic, and also the giant tarantula spiders which inhabited the bathroom the week before I arrived." The dead scorpion was sent to Peter and Marion's house in an envelope, a tiny whitish monster, squashed flat.
