Trinidad in Life Magazine
« on: January 31, 2009, 12:44:19 AM »
Google just released the picture archive from Life magazine. Here are some pictures.
The captions are a little off though, they got Manley as a "Trinidad" politician and Bhadase Sagan Maraj as a "Jamaican"

Waller field:


Calypsonians - The Mighty Growler



mansion in port of spain, 1946 (still standing?)



Queen's Park Hotel:


War memorial


Tucker Valley Rd, Chaguaramas


Chaguaramas aerial view:


US Army HQ, 1941 (whitehall)


The Bonanza (Frederick St. I believe)



Heres more

you mean Rodney Wilkes? (I never hear that nickname associated with him but it's entirely plausible, I know Suleymanoglu used to go by that)  look like it very well could be him.
