Igorots - Macmurray Collection 1926

In the fall of 1926, John V.A. Mac­Mur­ray and his wife trav­eled through South China and to the Philip­pines, where they vis­ited Gov­er­nor Gen­eral Leonard Wood in Manila and Camp John Hay in Baguio. A trip to Bon­toc, where the Mac­Mur­rays stayed with gov­er­nor John C. Early, became the high­light of the jour­ney. Fea­tured below is a film of this trip from Baguio to Bon­toc. It con­tains rare footage of the local Igorots, who danced for Mac­Mur­ray dur­ing a fes­ti­val that Early orga­nized in honor of his guests on Octo­ber 9, 1926.

1926, my grandmother not yet born. So beautiful to see what our elders do and what their wearing. I notice the difference of "BAHAG" before and now, and OLD VIDEOS IS FASCINATING TO WATCH.

Thank you sir for sharing this, it is nice to see how Baguio started out, a city built by the Americans (U.S. government) still many American wooden houses surviving in Baguio, last time I was there 2007. 2004 I visited it 4 times and visited yearly to 2007 2 to 3 times each year and it has a big SM mall and other smaller malls, condos, plush hotels (biggest ones in Camp John Hay), movie theaters, Casinos. Thank God for a U.S. law still existing not to cut trees on designated national parks. God bless you. thank you for sharing.
