The images provided are scans of the actual object offered for sale. Unposted. In 1916, Mexico was in the midst of a revolution that would ultimately end dictatorship and establish a constitutional republic, and the Texas-Mexico border was as fluid as the Rio Grande. C. Tucker Barrett, a lawyer and amateur photographer in the U.S. Army's 16th Infantry Regiment, captured these extrajudicial executions. The photographs (a series of three) were made became photographic journalism as witnesses used their real photo postcards to share the news of what was happening to Mexican prisoners. The details of the extrajudicial capital punishment by firing squad have otherwise been lost to history.
