I have recently added an article by my father, Luis Valdespino, originally published in 1985 on The Cuban Flagand an small excerpt from an article I am currently illustrating on my great-grandmother Flora Heredia, describing the Tilburi and other horse carriagesused in Cuba in the 19th century and even today. There are other links of interest through these pages.
Please feel free to write me at havanapost@aol.com and let me know what you thought of the pages.
