Description
Time Magazine – July 8, 1946 – Vol. 48 No. 2 – Manuel Roxas, Philippine President
This original issue of Time Magazine, dated July 8, 1946, features Manuel Roxas, the first President of the independent Republic of the Philippines, on the cover. Just days after the Philippines gained full sovereignty from the United States on July 4, 1946, Roxas assumed office as the nation’s leader at a pivotal moment in its postwar recovery and democratic transition. This issue offers a timely profile of Roxas’s political rise, the challenges facing the newly independent country, and the U.S.-Philippine relationship in the early Cold War era.
In addition to the cover story, the magazine includes broad coverage of international political developments, American domestic issues, and global postwar reconstruction. Period advertisements and editorials further enhance its value as a historical snapshot of the mid-20th century world order.
