Yet two years later, on 14 March 1968, in the absence of the two Kordas, the company was officially closed as part of the last wave of nationalisation; the artwork was seized and given to the Oficina de Asuntos Historicos. The majority of the commercial and fashion photographs by Alberto, Luis and their later associate Genovevo Vasquez were lost, and with them an important and hitherto little-understood chapter in the history of Cuban photography.
