The Detroit Institute of Arts Research Library & Archives maintains an archive file with news stories and other materials on Francisco Albert (Francisco Albert Rosas), if someone is in that area, they could stop by and be able to provided citations to the important articles. --Bejnar (talk) 22:07, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
