This picture's title names a figure written as "Croszco," most likely a misspelling of Pascual Orozco, the Chihuahua revolutionary who led forces against the Porfirio Díaz government and later the Madero administration. Chihuahua was a major battleground of the Mexican Revolution, and news photographs of its leaders and towns reached American readers through wire services like Bain News Service. The record gives no date, and its title comes from unverified caption data, so the exact occasion of the entry is uncertain. Viewers should treat the identification as a lead to check against other sources on the revolution in northern Mexico.
