Filipino food sellers, ca 1900 by J. Tewell

Stumbled on a rather rare vintage photo of Filipino food sellers near Santa Cruz Church, Manila, Philippines. colorized from an early 1900 photo by J. Tewell   Not much else in known about the photo.  Based on what appears to their dark skin from the original photo, they are local provinsials who could part of the Negritos or possibly from the darker complexioned people of Zambalez or other northern parts of the Luzon island of the Philippines.
