- Description:
- This photograph from the Historic Archive of Guayas shows workers harvesting cane. Although the image is dated to between 1900 and 1909, it must have been taken after 1904, and as ownership is attributed to Rogerio Alvarado, it may have been taken in 1909 after he had assumed control.

- Description:
- This print is difficult to verify. It is entitled Viaje Presidencial, Población de San Cristóbal (Chatham), and attributed to C.I. Pazmiño. It appears to have certain structures that are similar to photos from 1921 and 1947. The view is east-southeast of the village quarters and shows some increased vegetation in the surrounding landscape. This image was used in Repeat Photo #9.

- Description:
- This photograph was taken by Capt. Rollo Beck in 1905 during the scientific visit of the California Academy of Sciences. It shows the port official and soldiers stationed on Chatham Island as they pose on board the schooner "Academy." Official occupations on the island included: inspector, warden, guards, postmaster, and lighthouse keeper. Despite their presence, it was observed that government authority was illusory; government representatives did nothing except to demonstrate the existence of governmental representation. Effective power rested in the hands of Manuel J. Cobos,

- Description:
- This photograph was taken by Capt. Rollo Beck in 1905. It is of a triple effect vacuum evaporator manufactured by McOnie Harvey & Co., Ltd., Glasgow. Sugar was concentrated by passing cane liquor through three vessels, each with an increasingly higher vacuum and lower temperature in order to achieve evaporation. Not only did the evaporator reduce the amount of required fuel through steam re-circulation and evaporation at lower temperatures, but it also protected the sugar product from destruction at higher temperatures.
