We Preserve and Organize Sources
Héctor Puchi Vázquez Collection


Héctor Puchi Vázquez was a photographer for El Descamisado and the newspaper Noticias. Together with his colleague Osvaldo Jauretche, Héctor procured the preservation of an extremely important collection of images of the decade of the 70’s.

These photos remained hidden in the mail coach of a train that, during the dictatorship, united the cities of Buenos Aires and Tucumán. In this way, they traveled back and forth hundreds of times in a hidden bag, until they could be safeguarded in other places. This is one of the most recent donations to the archive.
