Above: Thank you, Captain Cortal (click on images for hi-res)
Going through my pile of ephemera, I found some cool comics in the Filipino Saturday Mirror Magazine, July 5, 1955. The top comic, for Cortal headache medicine, reminds of of indie comics, esp. Los Bros. Hernandez. The Captain Cortal character was created by Anthony S. Velasquez aka "The father of Tagalog comics". I'm not sure what "singalong, house to house" means, maybe someone out there can explain. The second one, by Elmer Abustan is just goofy, classic 50's style which has now become popular again.
