willow_boy Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Old CCP Complex...Old celebrity faces in b & w...kilala nyo? Pards, great pics! The left photo shows the Legazpi Towers in the background (the one with the red brick outline). The right photo shows the popular 50s love team of Nestor de Villa and Nida Blanca, courtesy of LVN Studios. Unfortunately, both are deceased now. An all-out effort should be taken to preserve those real old, Filipino movies. They're part of our heritage and younger and future Filipino generations should have access to them.

Eto pa, Pareng wb...the old Congress Bldg. along Padre Burgos in Manila circa 70s. Linis pa ng Maynila nung araw at may cloud cover pa. Next is a local mag in the 70s we'd never got ourselves caught reading during our time... Quote Link to comment
