Series 7: Subject Files, 1904-1996
0.5 Linear feet
Box 3, OV 14, Box 20

This series contains files Lamarque collected on various interests and current events, including a Bacardi family dispute in the 1990s surrounding their rum company and several humorous photographs of the company's C.E.O., José M. Bosch (Abril Lamarque's cousin). Also found is material on the Cuban caricaturist and publisher, Conrado Massaguer. Files on Massaguer include a rare 1933 edition of the New York weekly magazine, Knickerbocker Jr.; several covers of his celebrated magazine Social, published in Havana between the years 1916 and 1938; and pages from the "Ellos" section of Social, which featured caricatures of prominent members of Cuban high society. Included is a large color poster of one of Massaguer's most famous caricatures, "Doble Nueve," with a handwritten dedication inscribed on the right.
The subject files also include material on the Dell Publishing Company and its owner, George T. Delacorte, Jr. Also found is material on Polish self-taught painter Karol Kozlowski, which include an exhibition catalog written by Lamarque's daughter, Martha Lamarque Sarno.
Three small scrapbooks with newspaper clippings of caricatures by Mexican caricaturist Ernesto García Cabral, as well as printed material about illustrators and caricaturists Arias Bernal, Paolo Garretto, Norman Rockwell and Sirio are also found. Photographs of Abril Lamarque with Cuba's former president, Fulgencio Batista are also arranged in this series.
This series is arranged alphabetically by subject.
