Historic Movies

This is a fascinating movie. A camera on the front of a street car 104 years ago.  I watched it a couple of times.  Look at the hats the ladies were wearing and the long dresses.  Some of the cars had the steering wheels on the right side,  I wonder when they standardized on the left?  Sure was still a lot of horse drawn vehicles in use.  Mass transit looked like the way to get around.  Looks like everybody had the right of way. Perhaps the oldest "home movie" that you will ever see!
"You are there" for a cable car ride in San Francisco"
This  film was "lost" for many years.  It was the first 35mm  film ever.  It was taken by camera mounted on the front  of a cable car.
The number of automobiles is staggering for 1906. Absolutely  amazing! The clock tower at the end of Market Street at the  Embarcadero wharf is still there.   ... How many "street cleaning" people were employed to  pick up after the horses? Talk about going  green!
Great  historical film!

This  film, originally thought to be from 1905 until David Kiehn with the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum figured out exactly when it was shot. From New York trade papers  announcing the film showing to the wet streets from recent heavy rainfall & shadows indicating time of year &  actual weather and conditions on historical record, even when the cars were registered (he even knows who owned them and when the plates were issued!).. It was filmed only four days before the Great California Earthquake of April 18th 1906  and shipped by train to NY for processing.  Amazing, but true!
Cable Car Ride in San Francisco, CA in 1906 - This is a fascinating movie. A camera on the front of a street car over 100 years ago. Look at the old cars, some with steering wheels on the right. Still a lot of horse drawn vehicles in use. Mass transit looked like the way to get around, and it seems everybody had the right of way.
