Slice of Life

To mark the celebration of National Heritage Month (NHM), the Philippine Postal Corp. (Post Office) issues a commemorative stamp honoring cartoonist and National Artist for Visual Arts Larry Alcala, famous for his “Slice of Life” cartoon series.  In 1988, “Slice of Life” received the Best in Humor Award and was cited for helping to keep alive the Filipino’s penchant for humor even in the midst of adversities.
