Description
Original Cuban revolutionary-era typed logistical communication related to agricultural fertilizer distribution, bearing handwritten approval markings attributed to Che Guevara.
The handwritten notation in the upper-left corner appears to read:
“Aprob.” / “Aprobado”
“Che”
Translated:
The document references fertilizer shipments and agricultural supply operations connected to revolutionary Cuban institutions including INRA (Instituto Nacional de Reforma Agraria / National Institute of Agrarian Reform) and ANAP (National Association of Small Farmers).
This piece appears to be an internal operational communication or telegram-style request concerning urgent agricultural supplies during the early revolutionary period in Cuba.
