Cool 1959 photograph of Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro as he wears a classic American cowboy hat and inspects a horse from early in his reign over the island nation. Hoped had to be high at this time that he would work with the United States, but within two years he would be instrumental in escalating the cold war as he aligned himself with the Soviet Union. Issued by the Houston Chronicle and stamped on the back by the original photographer Frank Pusateri, this is a unique image that is being offered here for the first time ever!
