This is a specimen of the earliest issue of Tagalog Klasiks (isinalarawan), dated July 16, 1949.
Contents of this comics include:
-Isang Libo't Isang Gabi sa Arabia (One Thousand and One Nights). Tagalog reprint of the same story appearing in Classics Illustrated #8.
-Walang Laya (looks to me that this was taken from a different american comics, possibly illustrated by Jack Kirby, since the credit box was removed)
-Mga Kwento ni Lola Basyang: Maryang Makiling by Severino Reyes and Maning de Leon
-Pusong Mapangarapin. Looks like another Kirby work.
Total pages:34. Originally priced at 25 philippine centavos.

Ok Gerry, ikaw pa! Next time wag ka na magpaalam, kunin mo lahat ng mapapakinabangan mo sa museum mo, ok?
Merry Christmas pala sa inyo ni Ilyn, magpapadala sana ko ng card kaso parang iba na yata address mo kesa dun sa nakalagay sa Crest Hutt Komiks. Basta Merry Christmas! At alam ko naman na prosperous ang New Year mo. I think one of these days e bibigyan ka ni President GMA ng award, dahil dun sa haunting story mo sa Siglo Passion.Grabe galing talaga nun.
