1911 New York 8 minute film

[pem]

Restored and colorized. Pretty cool. No motorcicles. Lots of horse **** though. Where are the cycles. Hard to imagine everybody in the film is dead now.

I'm always thankful that some people had the foresight, made the effort, and spent the money to document their time with cameras. Thanks, pem for posting that. I have a 1911 motorcycle so that film helps to give context to it's age.
