Can You Identify What These Are?
Pietro E Reyes, III
For those who left the Philippines more than a decade ago and wish to
take a stroll down memory lane, you can probably identify what these are
and what they represented for that particular generation. Some are long
gone while others are still around. For those who remember more, please
feel free to add to this list.
For those who grew up overseas (not in the Philippines) and wish to find
out more about the country your parents (and possibly, your
grandparents) left behind, you can printout this list and ask your
parents (and grandparents) what these are and, more importantly, how
these represented the generation in which your parents grew up. These
are only a few "memory hooks" but your parents (and grandparents) will
probably come up with more once they get started...

mga upuan sa balcony ay walang armrests?

Calumpang/Bocaue/Grace Park- My favorite "JOY" Center.
Playboy (Ermita)- sexy live shows.
La Loma- famous for its Lechon ni Mang Tomas and cockpit arena aside
from sementeryo also known as La Loma Hotel.
Palace - known for its "singit" Bomba sex films like Uhaw, Dayodok,
Hayok at madulas ang mga alleys. How about Mayfair?
San Lazaro- horse race tract( Manila Jockey Club) and also North
General Hospital( Jose Reyes Memorial Hospital)
Divisoria- wet market and dry market. Its a place for bargain hunters
and drop point for fresh fruits and vegetables.
Babalo- "Peping Cojoangco"? in the showbiz.
Apeng Daldal- deadbol na sa katatawa.
Bilibid- old Bilibid prison then in near Felix Huertas/ Recto, Santa
Cruz, Manila.

Right! According to my economics professor, Fr. McPhelin, during the 30's,

Maynila napunta. They became prominent in the local business community.
Berg (department store along the Escolta) and Hahn (Hahn Manila,

Ang sikat na brand of shoe polish noon ay BROADWAY. Joe Bush was an
American old-timer in the Philippines. He lived in Mandaluyong. Bumibili
siya ng mga direct dyes sa GIEGY, CIBA, SANDOZ, BAYER, HOECHST, BASF, etc.
Ni-rerepak niya ito into small packets at binebenta sa mga sari-sari stores
under the brand of JOE BUSH. Noong lumaon naging generic ang kanyang brand
para sa TINA (dye)--naging JOBOOS or DYOBOS. JOBOOS was available in
different colors but most common was the TINA used in laundrying (tinting
blue, AQUAMARINE BLUE). In the seventies, I heard that a big trading
company wanted to buy from the family of Joe Bush, the name JOE BUSH
because of its goodwill. The family elected to keep the name.

The "Low Waist Gang"; famous showbiz barkada ng mga binatang artista.
Three prominent members were DaKing (a.k.a. Fernando Poe Jr.) and his
brother Conrad, Erap (a.k.a. Joseph Estrada, former PACC King and now
Vice-Prez), and Zaldy Zhornack.
May nakakaalala pa ba kung sinu-sino pa ang miyembro? I only remember
them from a movie I saw one afternoon sa Channel 13 yata, called
"Lutong Makaw", which was apparently shot on location in Hongkong and
Macau.

Well, at least, appliance manufacturer. Famous for their TVs in the
wide wood cabinets na ginagawang altar ni ermats kapag dumadalaw ang
traveling image ni Mama Mary of Lourdes.
Nagtrabaho si erpats noon dito, eh. He was even able to make a few

I also remember them as the favorite vehicles of cops and of PLDT

Tancho, the Japanese hairdressing company, had two products: Tancho pomade
and Tancho Tique. Tancho pomade is the regular grease while Tancho Tique
was the stick brand used for very "stubborn" hair.
>

This is the pomade brand known for its cool tin packaging. The packaging
had drawing of a couple dancing "Rigodon." The shape of the tin can was
also designed so that the edge of one's comb easily dipped into the can.
You could just imagine, what with the heavy use of pomade in the fifties
and sixties, what the pollution (lack thereof) situation was in Manila back
then. Thank God the greasy style is long gone or else rubbish would stick

>1. Carriedo
Manila's shopping district for the common tao. I think SM had a spot
there, also ShoeWorld (na pinataob nga ng SM) and Good Earth Emporium.
GEE had a sort of amusement park at the top of their building, but I
never got to see it up close.
Ngayon, Uniwide at Isetann na yata ang sikat doon, at ang LRT ay may
stop that has stairs going straight into Uniwide.
>2. Little Quiapo
Popular "malt shoppe" once located along Espana Ave., in front of UST.
Famous for their halo-halo and maiz-con-hielo. We used to go there
some nights, after we close our store. That was also where I first
tasted Selecta Ice Cream.
>3. OK Lang
A TV Show in the seventies. Famous alumni include The Apo Hiking
Society, Tito, Vic, and Joey, and the late Ricky Manalo, Jr.
I remember them most for their holy-week take-up of Andrew LLoyd
Webber and Tim Rice's "Jesus Christ Superstar. They had Jim Paredes
playing Jesus and Boboy Garovillo playing Pontius Pilate. Can you
imagine what it looked like when Pilate was looking Jesus over, stops,
and looks up into Jesus' face singing "You look so small; not a king
at all."?
>4. D & E
>5. Buhay Artista
>6. Student Canteen
The first successful variety show sa tanghali. Hosted by Eddie Ilarde
and Bobby Ledesma. A few singers got their start from Student
Canteen's singing contests, although only Marco Sison comes to mind.
>7. Pinalakang Tabing
Pilipino for "Silver Screen", an afternoon program that showed old
Filipino movies dating from our "Golden Age of Cinema". Madalas
makita doon sina Carmen Rosales at Rogelio de la Rosa.
My dad used the show to fall asleep in the afternoons.
>8. Mga Aninong Gumagalaw
>9. Aliw ng Tahanan
>10. Ma Mon Luk
Popular Chinese food joint located along Quezon Blvd. near Banawe St.
Once accused of serving sio-miyaw. They're still around.
And I still like their mami.
>11. Choco Vim
Magnolia's choco drink in a bottle. Precursor to Choco-lait. Famous
for the chocolate settled at the bottom of the bottle. Kelangang
alugin mo ng husto para mahalo ang tsokolate, at parating bitin ang
isa -- either dahil konti lang ang laman, or dahil talagang masarap
(probably the latter).
>12. Mariwasa
Maker of ceramic tiles and other ceramic products. They have a
factory in Pasig, I believe, na hinihintuan parati ng G Liner na bus.
They also had a basketball team, that was up there with Crispa and
Toyota in the olden days of the PBA.
>13. Emma de Cano
A fancy dress shop along Quezon Blvd., near the Santo Domingo Church.
I think a son of the owners was my classmate in elementary over at
Angelicum School, incidentally situated within the Sto. Domingo Church
compound.
>14. Everyday Holiday
>15. The Sensations
>16. Laura & Sons
>17. Taliba
Pilipino tabloid newspaper, published by the same company who brings
us the Manila Bulletin. (o Balita ba iyon? I always mix up the two!)
>18. Pinagbuklod ng Langit
The movie detailing the rise of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos, in their
words. I think Luis Gonzales played Apo Ferdy. Don't remember who
played Imelda though. Nida Blanca maybe?
>19. Wing Duo
A singing duo famous during the fifties. Can't remember if they're
American or Fil-American.
>20. Jingle/Twinkle
Two young stars during the seventies. Kabarkada nina Arnold Gamboa,
Dondon Nakar, at Roderick Paulate.
Incidentally, Jingle is also a music magazine.
>21. Motorco
(shot in the dark) The double-decker buses that ply the Luneta.
>22. Robina Farms
Makers of Jack and Jill snacks. I love Chippy and Chiz Curls.
>23. Kusing
>24. De Dios
Bus company plying the Cubao-Quiapo (via Espana) route (I think).

Couldn't remember the names. One is a white-Russian. Like the HoodJoes,
