The color is really good in that. Hard to believe it is that old.

Gosh! Look at the hats and ribbon sashes! The boys’ outfits are great, too.
I came across, years ago, of a pic of my uncle when he was really little (1930’s). Little sailor suit, hat, and long, iron-curled locks. It was a HOOT!

Includes footage of primitive ancestor of NBC peacock. :)
It’s real and was done with filters; costly and considered a waste of time.

I avidly typed in the YouTube addy....and got a message, "This video is unavailable. Sorry about that", with an un-smiley face thrown in for a bonus.
Gloom....I really wanted to see the video.

Related, here are some Autochrome images which worked on the same principle. Autochrome was patented in 1903 and hit the market in 1907.

What’s with the Brits and putting ‘’u’’in words like ‘’color’’ and ‘’labor’’? And why do they pronounce the word ‘’clerk’’ like ‘’clark’’?

Cannot be.
The world was black and white until 1943, when during the World War II war effort, the United States embarked on a intensive research effort to invent color. The navy realized that being able to see in color would allow naval spotters to recognize grey ships against the blue sea and sky more handily.
In 1944, the Pigment Project (as it was known) had a breakthrough and released color into the world.
Things have not been the same since.
