Summary

[edit]
Description

On 4 September, 1932, Fulgencio Batista led a rebellion that contributed to the overthrow of Cuba’s government. The coup established a new regime, with Colonel Carlos Mendieta y Montefur proclaimed the Provisional President of the Republic of Cuba.

Batista later on went to become Cuba’s President, and was himself overthrown in a military coup in 1959, led by Fidel Castro.

The images above are of a despatch addressed to Cuba’s Secretary of State, recognising the new government of Colonel Carlos Mendieta y Montefur.
