Don
Eusebio Ibarra, the wealthy merchant and landowner turned into a legend
by Guatemalan oral tradition, illustrating stories and jokes about a
good-natured, naive, and outlandish character. Far from the myth of Don
Chebo Ibarra, there is a historical figure who, based on hard and honest
work, was able to position himself among the highest spheres of the old
Quetzaltecan society of the late 19th century.

Ibarra Castillo was born in the year 1837, not being able to specify in
which town. Some have attributed that he was a native of Antigua
Guatemala, others that his nationality was Mexican. The truth is that in
the mid-19th century his vast properties extended to Quetzaltenango and
Retalhuleu. His parents were Aquilino Ibarra and Cecilia Castillo. His
ten children were the product of two marriages, his first six children
being from the marriage with Perfecta Galindo and four with María
Barrios, his second wife.

Ibarra was a multifaceted merchant, beginning in this field with a
modest company of carts pulled by mules to transport merchandise
from the South Coast to the cold land. Later he dedicated himself to
marketing wines imported from Europe and buying and selling
livestock, among other commercial and financial activities. Claudia
Dary, in her study "The figure of Eusebio Ibarra", the result of
several interviews with Quetzaltec personalities, writes: "It is
believed that Mr. Eusebio Ibarra was one of the co-founders of Banco
de Occidente. He is also considered an initiator of the hotel
industry in Quetzaltenango", the latter due to his large family and
friends who stayed at his properties, giving the impression that
these were hotels. The truth is that by positioning himself in a
high economic status, he undertook to buy multiple urban and
agricultural properties.

Among the notable urban properties, two properties can be mentioned
in zone 1 of Quetzaltenango: one where INVO initially operated and
another where the women's prison is currently located. Another real
estate was located on Calle Real de San Nicolás, where the Ibarra
Theater operated. They appear as their agricultural properties in
the Salinas Chapan farm land index, in Champerico, Retalhuleu. In
Costa Cuca, the Candelaria-Quimanquicuc farm, El Matasano, El
Encanto, La Soledad, and El Jardín. Our exonomic study will focus on
this last property, as it is the only one of its properties that has
fully identified individual files.

Private tokens, also known as farm and trade tokens, can be defined as a
privately manufactured monetary object whose function was to supply the need for
currency for payment or work control; in many cases they have facial or monetary
values, this does not constitute any legal value. The emergence of this
socioeconomic system in Guatemala in the mid-19th century was fostered by the
change in agricultural production from nopal cultivation to cochineal extraction
for coffee cultivation and by the scarcity of legal tender for cash payment. of
the laborers. As we have mentioned, the records of Mr. Ibarra's farm documented
in the different studies and catalogs will be analyzed.

The series of tokens from the El Jardín farm, located in Colomba, Costa Cuca, is
composed of three exonomic specimens with common face values ​​in the universe
of tokens in Guatemala (1/2, 1 and 2), possibly with the purpose of being able
to be used not only for labor payment and can also be used for control of work
and tasks and unit of measurement. They do not have attribute elements such as
date, geographic area of ​​location of the farm or factory or mint mark. The
latter would make it easier for us to know the country and an estimated date of
manufacture of the chips. They are limited to containing the face value, the
name of the owner and a star on the obverse. On the reverse again the same face
value, the name of the farm and a sober decoration of a vignette. The owner's
last name is misspelled, which may suggest that these tokens are of foreign
manufacture. Regarding their typology, they share attributes with the set of
tokens from the La Candelaria farm, owned by Manuel López Barrios, of which face
values ​​have been cataloged (1/4, ½, 1 and 2), and octagonal and blank tokens.
in the shape of a flower with face values ​​of 1 and 2, which leads us to think
about the possibility that the El Jardín series of tokens had the same face
values ​​and blank shapes that unfortunately would not have survived to our
days.

This worm, pretty sure it’s a worm and not a snake, can take a lot of abuse.
Size: X-Large (Pack of 1), Color: Blue Snake, Size: X-Large (Pack of 1), Color: Blue Snake
Snake, worm, whatever, my dog doesn’t care, she loves it all the same. My little friend can be kinda rough with her toys. This is no exception. The pictures are from roughly one month of giving it to her and include playing with it at least every other day or so. The top is holding up well, but the bottom has taken some damage, and two of the squeakers have long since been destroyed. Despite this, my dog still loves playing with it. We normally play tug of war together, but on her own she chews at it to get to the squeakers inside, which she promptly destroys, which I’m totally fine with, as quiet toys are much preferred, by me, not her. I believe there are 4 in the XL size that we got. We’ve had a few of these in the past. We tend to get about 6 months out of them. After she “lovingly” removes the squeakers, she doesn’t chew on it much, and we just use it for tug of war, but at that point she’s done enough damage to the underside that its time is limited. But, as it’s pretty low priced, for the time and enjoyment we do get out of it, it’s very much worth it. I do need to clarify, the durability is actually quite good, I don’t fault the product as at all, it’s just my dog is equally as good with destruction, but it should be noted this toy does last much longer than most of her victims. The color, (we got the blue and green) is also very vivid and nice, as is the texture. We’ll be purchasing again.

Awesome toy!
Size: X-Large (Pack of 1), Color: Blue Snake
My pitbull Stella loves these! Ive bought her two of the smaller snake toys in the past and she Absolutly loves them! The first one lasted about 6 months which is a lifetime compared to how long her other toys last lol and the second one lasted about the same. This time I decided to get the XL version. It has 6 squeakers instead of 3 like the smaller versions. I picked the teal and purple colors and it's like 43 inches long I think. Its the same length as her and shes a large size dog. She loves this thing! Its so cute watching her squeak each of the squeakers with her nose. While this is a great toy it is not chew proof. In fact its quite easy for an experienced chewer to get into this toy. It is relatively strong but it wont stand a chance with a power chewer. Like I said this is the third one of these I have bought in roughly a year. They do last longer then more soft toys I will give them that. This is the only soft toy she has not destroyed in 5 mins. But after a week or so at least one squeaker will be missing. For the average dog one of these snake toys will last a really long time and they are fun to play with. We play tug of war and fetch with it. Stella also loves when I squeak the toy she will squeak it back and we'll go back and forth for hours lol. One last thing it is loud! If noisy toys bug you, don't get this. The sqeakers are industrial strength lol

Durable toy but definitely NOT invincible
Size: Medium (Pack of 1), Color: Orange Gecko
BACKGROUND I have two labradors and, with my friends dogs over, we have a combined combination of five labradors at a time. If you have seen the film "Marley & Me" then you will understand our dogs. They tear through concrete, dry wall, and, well, just about anything they can get their paws and mouths on. It is very important to have plenty of toys for them to keep pre-occupied as most of the destruction is caused by dogs that are bored. Unfortunately, many items are not able to withstand this combined destructive force. I spotted these "Invincible" line of toys and thought they were worth a try. I ended up ordering basically one of every style and size. APPEARANCE The toys come in different sizes, colors, and shapes. The most common are the Gecko and the Snake. The toys are covered with a more durable cloth that is fuzzy and suppose to withstand quite a bit of chewing. Inside the toys are what are described as durable squeakers that, if punctured, will still squeak even after hours of being bitten and chewed upon. The larger the toy ordered, the more squeakers that are sewn into the toy. RELIABILITY I have to admit these toys did last about ten times as long as any other toy I have given my dogs. Unfortunately, nothing is indestructible. My dogs managed to find kinks in the lining of the toys that, once penetrated, will cause the toys to open leaving stuffing and squeak toys all over the place. The squeakers did withstand quite a bit of chewing before the squeaking went silent. I noticed that the snake toy did last quite a bit longer than the gecko or the little dragon characters. The snake had separate compartments for the squeakers and so, if one was torn out, the others survived. On the Gecko once its middle section was torn open the squeakers were lost. CUSTOMER SUPPORT Not utilized PROS: ++ Lasted about 10X times the length of time as other "invincible" toys CONS: ++ They are not truly "invincible" and will be destroyed over time CONCLUSION The invincible line of toys did last a lot longer than most toys that I have purchased for my labradors. I would recommend the snake over the gecko or other styles. I have had to toss the geckos as they were shredded but the snakes are still with me to this day six months later. Also note, even though "Invincible" is in the title, these toys are definitely not although you will save an incredible amount purchasing these toys once and having a gradual destruction process versus having to buy new toys continuously over the same period of time that these lasted.

The toy is no match for my dogs.
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Pink Snake
The toy itself is well made and the squeaker work well. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 2 weeks before my Treeing Walker Coonhound pup (super chewer) had it shredded. My Plott hound ( heavy chewer) just loved these! She is older and they last longer for her. However she does love to go for the seems first then rips out the squeaker. But she will carry it around for months like that. I think she like the material. I'll probably go back to Walmart for the smaller cheaper ones for now.
