Muy buen texto de María A. Cabrera Arús sobre la fetichización y comercialización de la imagen del tiranosauro y su claque a principios de la Revolución: «The Album of the Cuban Revolution, printed in 1959 and reprinted in 1960 by Revista Cinegráfico, S.A. and the Cuban preserves and candy producer Felices, is a more elaborate case of commercial advertisement of the revolutionary imagery and Castro’s iconic figure. In its 268 cards, consumers of the Felices brand were presented an illustrated history of the revolutionary struggle, stressing Castro’s participation and leadership.»
