Summary

Description
English: Three pictures from the Brazilian state of Acre.

top image: five people crossing "the Partacomba" en route to a rubber tree plantation; "Partacomba" may be a typographical error, but I have been unable to determine what the name was supposed to be.

Bottom left image: a street in "Capatra", described as "the seat of the Acre separationists". "Capatra" may be a typographical error, but I have been unable to determine what the name was supposed to be; it probably had some connection with "the Capatará rubber concession" owned by José Plácido de Castro.

Bottom right image: people in a "rubber camp" -- that is, a village whose residents all work on a rubber plantation.
