Really cool!! Thanks for posting.
Men and young men/boys wearing suits and ties, women/young ladies wearing dresses and scarves.
And, no neck support, on the roller coaster. That one young man certainly enjoyed “holding on” to the young lady, on the coaster!
Excellent quality footage!!

Thanks, that was moving. Just normal people on film, eating sandwiches and waffle cones. No script, other than the show barker and magician. Soothing in a way somehow.

This is a great YT account.
I particularly like the really old films which are slowed down so the speed is more natural and sound is added. You get a strange surreal feeling watching them - as if it feels more real.
It’s hard to appreciate sometimes that every person in a vintage film or photo was a living, breathing person. As real as you are.
That sounds obvious, and you already know it intellectually, but sometimes the strange, sped-up quality of really old pre-1920 films (or old photos) gives you a weird sense of distance or unreality.

Late ‘50’s and early to mid ‘60’s were great times...
They will never return...
