Streetprint Manila is a research project that is part of a larger research endeavour called “Six Continents and Between”. Initiated by Prof. Gary Kelly of the University of Alberta, 6CAB seeks to investigate popular print culture across various geographical, sociocultural, and ethnolinguistic contexts. More specifically, it aims to look at reading patterns and preferences of the Filipino Everyman, or those whom we would largely consider members of the “masa” class.
Aside from newspapers and tabloids, some of the other items sold by these vendors are cigarettes, candy, paper or plastic fans, bottled water, and snacks like shelled peanuts or steamed corn on the cob. (Image courtesy of avrotor.blogspot.com)
