Re: Manila, 1945 (also Shanghai mid-'30s)

I must express the fact I like you sharing these old pictures and their context with us. They give life to what would otherwise only be sterile words in insipid books. Sadly almost all of my old photos couldn't even be fairly called of national interest, let alone international, or else I'd happily...
