The Medieval Guilds, an EB Film 1956, F939
A short education film, by EB Films (Encyclopaedia Britannica) about Medieval Guilds. This covers there development and workings in Europe during the middle ages.
This is quite a production, and printed on a good colour stock film. As I could not find a copy of this film I thought I would post it up (and I don't think it made it to video).
Credits.
Producer/Distributor: EB Films
Production: Milan Herzog
Historical Advisor: David K Bjork
I could find no further credits for actors or narration.

Canada's Maple Syrup Industry, 1930s, 1936, F960
Переглядів 1014 днів тому
A short film about the history and current state of Canada's maple syrup industry. I say current state...but in fact current here means about 90 years ago from today (2024), as the film was released in 1936 by the "Canadian Government Motion Picture Bureau". It is silent with sub-titles on 16mm Kodak stock. I could find no evidence of this film on YT already so thought I would post it up. A sur...

A Blackpool Holiday in Summer 1934, 1930s F957a
Переглядів 105Місяць тому
Some footage of a Blackpool holiday in 1934 (possibly 1935), taken by an amateur film-maker using 16mm Black and White film stock. This shows some of the sea front, the South Shore Lido, and the Pleasure Beach Amusement Park. I notice that Blackpool has been a bit of a favourite among amateur film makers of the past, but it is especially nice to see the pre-war footage like this. The last of th...
Hillman Hunter Advert/Commercial bits, C1970, F958a

Some parts of adverts for the Hillman Hunter car range of about 1970. I have a fondness for this car so have persevered with this footage despite the fact that it is in pretty rough condition...and does not seem complete. I think the Hunter was always a thoughtful alternative to Ford. Good value, easy to run, and modern styling at this time. No titles or credits came with this footage. As I can...

This is a 16mm print with sound narration (of a ...
Rail Crash on the South Pacific line, California, 1948, 1940s, and the Santa Fe train passes, F938a

Some colour footage from the late 1940s (I think 1948) that shows a train crash somewhere in the South Pacific Line in Californian. The train wreck is being cleared, and it appears the Santa Fe train passes the crash site. I have no idea exactly where and when this happened, suggestions would be very welcome. This has been frame by frame digitised at a resolution of 2048x1152 from the original ...
Blackpool C1936, 1930s and the South Shore Lido Swimming Pool, F955b

Some 16mm amateur footage of Blackpool dating to around 1936 (I hope!) The footage shows ordinary scenes around the resort and pleasure park...but interestingly some shots of the South Shore Lido...or open air swimming pool...whatever it was called. It looks a gracious location. I understand it used filtered seawater, and had a 10 meter diving platform. The stock was originally Kodak colour saf...

Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway 1977, Steam Trains on the Owd Ratty Line, F953
Переглядів 203Місяць тому
Some colour footage of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Heritage Railway in Cumbria (England) for 1977 I think. I believe this is of a minimum (15in) gauge and runs for 7-miles in the valley of Eskdale between Ravenglass and Dalegarth stations. This footage shows something of this journey and a pleasure park of some sort somewhere. I believe "Ratty" in the title refers to an early name for the line.....
The Town of Plovdiv, Bulgaria a Tourist Film C1977, Bulgarian 1970s, F956
Переглядів 249Місяць тому
A sweet and short tourist film promoting the many virtues of the town of Plovdiv in Bulgaria. This dates to the late 1970s, possibly 1977. Among the many attractions are a cultural festival in the Autumn, traditional buildings and streets, and night life set in historic surrounds. I note the promotion emphasises the presence of cars...indeed a carpark with some in seems presented almost as an a...

Some amatuer 16mm Kodak Safety film (pre Kodachrome) of Scarborough. This includes footage of the South Bay Pool which closed in 1989. There is also footage of people enjoying the beach, the harbour, the MV Coronia pleasure boat, and Peasholm Park. I often get dates wrong because time prevents as thorough a check as is needed to be spot on all the time...but I think I may have got the date righ...
Four Kosset Carpet Commercials with Cat from the 1960s, Adverts. F954b
Переглядів 65Місяць тому
Some cute and I think rare commercials for Kosset carpets dating to the 1960s I guess (or early 1970s). They make much of the colour and hardwearing qualities of the brand which was made of man-made fibres at the time. The sort of material that may well last an eternity...whether you want that or not. The white cat which appears in these adds was very much a mascot of the brand at the time as I...

Interesting to see how empty some of these roads were all these years ago... Photography: Louis Epstein M...

Ahh, the golden days before the internet and mobile phones, so beautiful...🏖️💖
Looks like a beautiful place back then looks like a beautiful place a long time ago in a land far away I would have loved to went there and looked over that walkway simply gorgeous it looks like it smelled great
I sailed on her a few times both ways to and from Lagos and to and from Liverpool and Southampton. I have many memories, but not as many had I been an adult at the time. Thanks very much for the video
Girls are fully clothed while marching in a parade! Wonderful video!
This movie was made in 1987, Microsoft went public 1986. Amazon wasn’t even a vision back then. Boeing was respectable back then & McDonnell/Douglas wasn’t imploding things like they are today. Seattle followed Boeings every command like pawns. The 1980s was a great moment for Seattle to clean up its streets & present itself to the world & hope someone might notice. That moment came in 1990 when Seattle hosted the Goodwill Games, a big thing back then & the weather was perfect Larry King hosted the games & remarked after looking out the window of his studio, the sun setting behind the Olympic Mountains with a slight fog majestically colored from the sun, “look at that” Larry shouted LOOK AT THAT! Yesterday it was 96° & now its 69° just amazing it feels great looks beautiful i have never experienced this before ever, look at that!” And i guess people were looking. Seattle looks somewhat like it did in 1987, today it ranks as a World Class City for being a tourist destination, a business destination, expensive & unaffordable & that is no small accomplishment.
It's a huge absurdity to have destroyed it completely. The bomb damaged building should have been preserved, rebuild at least partially to transform it in a memory museum about 2nd WW, the holocaust, the insanity of Hitler, etc... It's even more stupid that it could have displayed what is shown at the documentation center Obersalzberg just a few meters away ! The argument to avoid neo nazi pilgrimage is nonsense. The huge majority of people need to see physical elements of the past to believe that it did really happen. In a few decades and generations, Hitler, the holocaust, WW2 will be forgotten, and a nazi regime equivalent may reappear, unless preserved WW2 elements show that it did happen. Villa Marlier (Wanssee conference) was preserved and transformed into a museum for memory of Holocaust, most concentration camps are preserved to be visited, in France the village of Oradour where 2SS division Das Reich killed 642 civilians is preserved even in ruins, as it was partially burned in 1944... The worst is that the Eagle's nest was completely preserved to attract tourists so money. In 1952, the US authoritues destroyed it while at the same time the USA hired hypocritically lots of former nazi engineers like Von Braun (paperclip op) ! Maybe one day the Berghof will be rebuild, once now german authorities stop thinking erasing physical parts of History erase History itself
One of my mum's favourite songs. She's 84.
Still current in 1970, but 1971 saw the Mk3 Cortina which rendered it obsolete in many drivers eyes…
Hey, per chance is it possible if I could get the raw scan of this?
Where would Morely be without Eileen?! That was a great twist!

This is a most enjoyable series! Good balance of grit and lightness. I really like the chemistry between Morely and his "Girl Friday", Eileen.
So many beautiful artifacts looted by the Americans! What a shame!
very interesting
interesting film, and like the music
There are images taken in La Explanada and Quintana and Alfonso el Sabio streets in Alicante on market day. Thanks for sharing these beautiful images.

My elderly Grandmother and Great Uncle traveled with my Mother and I to LIbya via Germany (where had my wedding). Their first ever airplane flights . And the in Libya, the coup and they had to be evacuated by a no seats US military transport ! Bless them...they never complained at all. In those days of no cell phones or internet, it was scary because only BBC and VOA radio info.. People who were around to see the first flight by the Wright Brothers...and we took them to Europe and Africa ! They were troopers !! What "coup"...I guess no biggie to people who had lived through the turn of the century and two world wars and the great depression !! Fortunate me to have such people in my life. Thankfully the coup was not a crazy prolonged bloody mess.
❤❤❤
I love the way the English say "good day", instead of the American "have a nice/good day".
A much better time for sure.
The most luxurious Ford ever made. The 4 door version was basically a less expensive Lincoln Continental.
Last time I saw Windsor Castle she was tied up in Jeddah early 80s
Thank you, for this wonderful video, I was transported to this day and I felt so sad when the video ended. I really don't know how this happened, but, thank you, again.
It's the casual mention of the "removal" of the indigenous people for me.
Considering that he is an advanced driver, he doesn’t handle the jag very well, particularly the steering wheel . . .
At 20 mo.'s old, in Dec. 1947, I have photos of myself standing in the deep snow of the Blizzard of '47, in Prospect Park, Bklyn, NY! In the 1888 "Blizzard", my then 5 year old, future grandfather later recalled walking out onto the frozen Hudson river & workmen going out on the second floor of his house to 'start' shoveling the snow! Wow!
Very beautifull scenery
Great video.I remember that storm well.
The world was so full of hope back then. feels like a different era <3
I was at Albany Infants School in Roath in 1975!

London looks surprisingly recognisable
Worked on it 1977to 1982 it was great then nearly all British crew and Irish the craic was brilliant.
Nice job mate.. I have a pro-version of Davinci Resolve and it has an extremely cool upscaler. Happy to run this video through a 4k upscaler for you. Just shout (I'm on UA-cam too.. You'll work it out!). PS - It works really nicely.
