Two different daily English-language newspapers published in Manila. Both share approximately the same format - headlines and small news articles relating to the war and local interests printed on recto, advertisements on verso. The Manila Post's lead article announces "Americans Seize Jolo and Culion" while The Victory News announces "Allies Near Berlin." On April 11, 1945, the American army was also famously freeing the Buchenwald concentration camp.
Both periodicals rare in any issue in the trade and in OCLC.
