Yes, Type 1 photo printed from the original negative. The International News stamping matches the style used by them in their final years before merging with United Press later in 1958 to become United Press International (UPI).

Interesting that it comes from the archives of a Mexico-based newspaper, as you don't see too many of those making their way back north. I don't think that would add anything to the value, as the issuing agency was U.S.-based, but just another neat tidbit.
