The below Saturday Evening Post magazines from March 27th, 1948, April 3rd, 1948, and April 10th, 1948 present a three part series about Colonel Mashbir, which has the same title as as Mashbir’s upcoming 1953 autobiography titled; I Was an American Spy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The above magazine photo presents Colonel Mashbir greeting the Japanese surrender signing arrangement delegation in Manila, Philippines, in preparation for the official Japanese Surrender Signing Ceremony that took place on the deck of USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay on September 2, 1945 which ended WWII. This was a conflict that Mashbir had devoted his full energies during the 1920s and 30s attempting to prevent.
