Steve Santos, son of famous Filipino painter and cartoonist Mauro “Malang” Santos, posted these fascinating photographs of his father on Facebook, along with legendary Filipino comics illustrators Tony DeZuniga and Alfredo Alcala on the streets of New York and in Mang Tony’s apartment in the 1970s. With Steve’s permission, I’m posting them here.

Wonderful pictures of those much admired artists. Thank you for posting them.
Too cool!!!
A true glimpse of our artistic heritage! Approve!
I keep hearing, “California Dreamin’” by The Mama and Papas, and “Light My Fire” by the Doors….
I thought they were shooting a scene from TAXI DRIVER in the first picture.
Also, LOVE Mang Tony’s hair.
