There's a Facebook group full of this - Memories of old Manila.

Lots of interesting pictures posted there from time to time.

I remember when Makati had this marker along Guadalupe. IIRC, there is an eagle statue and it says "MAKATI" I know other cities also had this in the border of their area. There was also one along Osmena Highway.

Ah, QUAD. The Fontana Hobby Shop used to be in that area in a little small single-story building.

It was the only place at the time where I can buy Hasegawa and Tamiya scale model kits.

I had a crush on Ms. Fontana at the time. Tall, slender, long-legged.

Although she wore glasses, I knew there was a hottie behind those spectacles.

ID those cars!

Ford Cortina, Mitsubishi Colt Mirage & Celeste, Izuzu Gemini, 3 Corollas- isang silver edition (kulay white) a DX (?) liftback (in front of the Cortina) and another one na kulay green beside the silver edition and I'm not sure what the other white one is beside the green corolla... a Toyota Crown or Cressida?

I think the white one is a 1980 Datsun 180b?
