Niña tagged me, and now I’m posting this old postcard which Juned of Baratillo.net got from the now closed The Filipino Bookstore. Quite an item I may say. The Filipino Bookstore was my product on my final thesis in college.

Obviously this was a gag photo. The real would have been on a scaffold with Guardia Civils on each corner. Some historical trivia, the orginal garotte used to execute Padre Burgos. Gomez, and Zamora survived until it was burned to cinder during a fire, sometime between WWII and the EDSA Revolution.

This meme was intended to celebrate the Philippine’s 109th year of independence. It’s a bit late but it’s better than non.

Here’s how the meme works:

1. Download the scanned front (800px) and back (800px) of this postcard and resize to fit your blog.
2. Put some sense into this very old postcard by adding some text. It can be serious, it can be funny. Anything goes!
3. Title of the entry should be Only in the Philippines!
4. Share the love and tag five other proud Filipinos.

I’m not tagging anyone specific so everyone is free to do this Meme 😀
