Description
The Tacajo Sugar Corporation set up in 1916 evidently belonged to the Rionda empire (president was Manuel E Rionda in 1923). It operated a mill which began operations in 1917 in Tacajó, Oriente province, Cuba. The mill is apparently still operating today.
Typical design for the First Mortgage Bond. Specimen from the archives of ABN. The bond issue of 1.5 million US-$ will have served to finance the purchasing of land and the construction of the mill. Vignette of a harvesting scene with an ox-cart.
