The Coney Island rides looked like a lot of fun but would never be allowed today

When everything was new to everyone and lots of optimism 👍🏽

Certainly a unique culture presented here...With all its goods and bads...

Magic film.

Yeah , good old days. Back when y’all was still lynching black folks. Back when y’all was invading and over throwing foreign countries. Back when everything was white? I know why people like you long for those old days. Bad news and I’ll be the first to tell you. That’s a dead ideology.

BTW, when Henry Ford died in 1947 his final ride to the cemetery was taken in a Packard hearse.

Lindbergh was a staunch anti-war personality....Looking back, the Founders warned us about hastily jumping into conflicts un necessarily....Lindbergh was good for America.

Wow. I had no idea Rod Serling narrated documentaries.

really an eye-opener documentary thanks a lot

Great old footage!

If you slow the video down to about half speed it looks much more realistic. But then the audio on the other hand is then way out of whack

34:28 Angel's Flight in it's original location in L.A. At least I can say I got to ride it there a good 10 years before it was packed up and moved.

Without doing any research I can’t say you are wrong, but I would dispute your statement on the basis that the Great British empire was perhaps the largest economy in the world and stayed so until WWII, and now is only a shadow of what it once was, great empires and economy’s come and go, just as the British empire did, now the USA holds that position, but they need to look towards China 🇨🇳, their economy is catching up with the USA, so the USA needs to be careful about not being so comfortable in that position.

Yeah... People always talk about “If I had a time-machine, I would go back in time and shoot Hitler.” I think there are far better targets than Hitler, starting with people like Arthur de Gobbineau, who was one of the “philosophers” who inspired the Confederacy, Fascism, and Henry Ford (de Gobbineau was who first described the “Master Race”.... Hitler was a clear and obvious danger to the world, whom the opposition to would create greater unity in the world... But people like Ford, Lindbergh, or other “Fascist Sympathizers” before, during, and after WWII caused much worse damage in the long-run.

What about the IJ? Was it a comic book? Porn? What was wrong with it? Are we to believe that a high achiever and great thinker as Ford would put all of his time and effort into something so worthless? Theres more truth to the JQ than your telly would have us believe...

I wait for the day a film before 1920 in Chicago for many reasons. If there is anything before that date showing the area where Wrigley building and tribune tower reside would be fabulous. Because what they claim is those buildings being built in the 1920’s which is a complete lie along with their “great Chicago fire” Lie. We inherited these buildings.

Was this before or after his admiration for hitler?

It says that the footage was given to the National Archives to curate upon the centennial of Hank Ford's birth, which would have been in 1963.
