Description
The documents in this archive trace developments primarily during the administration of John F. Kennedy related to Ecuador. Included here are plans by the U.S. Air Force, under an existing understanding between Quito and Washington, to commence photograph mapping operations in Central and Western Ecuador. Documents on commercial affairs include a report on the robust market of U.S. ophthalmic goods in Ecuador with continuing competition expected “from French, German, Swiss, and Japanese products”; and a proposed visit by U.S. fisheries consultants (June 1962). The materials were sourced from the U.S. National Archive. This collection is part of Archives Unbound.
