Plaza Morillo, La Paz, Bolivia: Order Code Hm-10
Subject:  Plaza Morillo, La Paz, Bolivia
Date: November 10, 1980
Locale: La Paz, Bolivia
Photographer:  Kendall W. Corbin
Comments: In November of 1980, the Bolivian government had been overthrown once again. A toca de queda (curfew) had been imposed, but it had little effect on the daytime hustle and bustle of the city, and no effect on the crowds that waited patiently and endlessly in the local plazas for buses that would take them to and from their shopping in the city. In the foreground a young mother sits with her child on a bag of produce.
