    Description

    Scarce early original vintage silver gelatin press photograph shows the beginning of the Japanese bombing of the Walled City of Manila in the Philippines.
    In December 1941, the Imperial Japanese Army invaded the Philippines. The first casualties in Intramuros brought by the war were the destruction of Santo Domingo Church and the original University of Santo Tomas campus during an assault. The whole city of Manila was declared by General Douglas MacArthur as an "Open City" as Manila was indefensible.
    Photograph measures 7 x 9 inches and is in excellent condition with no bends, tears, or creases and is very sharp and has strong tones with good contrast and clarity.
