1936 Closing of Iranian Legation in USA Diplomatic Incident Original Photo

Description: Size: 7x10 inch Condition: All photos in this series are in good to excellent condition for their age, unless otherwise outlined here. Photos of any major imperfections will be included. WASHINGTON, D.C. MARCH 31--Shah of Iran (Persia) is closing the Legation here and withdrawing all diplomatic and consular representatives from the United States. This constitutes a partial break in relations between Iran and the U.S., due, it is alleged, to discourteous remarks in the American Press following the detention of Iranian Minister Ghaffar Djalal in Elkton, Md., in Elkton, Md., some months ago on a speeding charge. Relations between the two countries will be maintained through the U.S. diplomatic mission in Teheran. State Department officials say this move by the Shah is NOT without precedent, although a definite parallel is not immediately available. 3/31/36 HARRIS & EWING PHOTOS. The events surrounding Ghaffar Djalal's detention and the consequential diplomatic fallout marked a significant moment in U.S.-Iran relations during the 1930s. Djalal, who served as Iran's Minister to the United States, was arrested for speeding, an incident that sparked negative press coverage in American media. This caused tensions between the two nations, ultimately leading to the Shah's decision to withdraw diplomatic representatives. Following this event, U.S.-Iran relations became increasingly complex, leading to a shift in diplomatic strategies, especially during World War II and beyond, as both nations navigated political interests in an evolving global landscape. === This 7x10 inch original type 1 (from original negative) photograph is from the personal collection of photographer Wes Howland (1906-1956). Howland was a reporter with the Harris-Ewing news service in Washington D.C from 1931-1941, and went on to serve with the military. He was one of a small number of photographers with complete access to the White House, Capitol, Senate, and House. This photo was part of a collection of over 1200 large photos from Wes Howland personal archive that we acquired from his estate. Included with the lot was the following note from a relative: "Periodically he would send his glossys to his mother. Soon after (joining the Marines) the newspaper of Harris & Ewing went out of business. As far as I know, the hundreds of pictures he took and sent his mother are one of a kind, and the only ones in existence. No prints have ever been made. I inherited them from my grandmother." Not only did Mr Howland have incredible access to the government figures of the day but he was a highly skilled photographer who produced some stunning historical images and documented Washington D.C. in the 1930s like few others.
