Bombshell Blast from the Past.
While researching on the early Philippine antiquities trade, I came across this obscure news item from 1969. I was surprised to learn that the former President’s mistress was a collector of antiquities. National Museum Director at the time was former Beauty Queen Gemma Cruz Araneta. One day I will follow the story from this stray lead. Who was the dealer sued? What was the vase declared fake by the National Museum?
