I like pictures like this. A different time and place as it is today. People coming and going about their daily lives. Look how nice they look and the ladies all look to have permanents in their hair. Photographer: Jack Birns LIFE Magazine, © Time Inc.

The only ID on this picture is “Philippines, 1949”, probably Manila. Anyone know about this rail vehicle. I suspect it was hand made using a large truck engine and cabin mating it to an old tranvia streetcar. Photograph taken by a “Life” magazine photographer.

A picture from a group of Smithsonian Institution, National Anthropological Archives listed as “Philippine schools and other subjects, 1900”. No other identification or location is given with the individual pictures. The scanned resolution is poor where many of the signs cannot be read. I do believe but not entirely sure that the pictures in the folder are all from the Manila area. Smithsonian Institution, National Anthropological Archives
Although he is best known for his stirring photos of the Vietnam War and Cultural Revolution in China, Marc Riboud also visited the Philippines in 1958 and used his talent to preserve a lot of memories. Some of these candid shots featured people from all walks of life and classes--from the late President Carlos P. Garcia to ordinary folks doing ordinary things.
