Walter P is adorable and Paul is a handsome young man. Film quality and camera work excellent. I wasn't born until 1957, but my Mom said the 50s were the best , happiest decade of her life.
My papy was the eight lot sold and he was their Mail man. He took Sanibel's by boat.
It was a Rose Garden 🌹
How is your mother doing after your brother's death?
It is hard for all of us 😭
@@Archive16 I'm so sorry to hear of your brother's passing. This is never easy.
I believe I died in the year 1938. 😕
8 or 16mm?
16mm with my old (low resolution) technology. Also less stable.... My new stuff.. Amazing...even 8mm. ... Just so you know...I enjoy watching your films @larryrood
@@Archive16 Ahh...truly love your post:) What is your new technology? For 8mm I have the film (1962 - mid 1970s) scanned at 720 x 480 by ScanCafe and then I process through Topaz Video AI and edit with Filmora. Both 8 and Super8 mm.
@@LarryRood we do some of the highest resolution captures in the country. 8, Super8, and 16mm. All our original captures and raw files are at or near 8K. .... We actually "dumb them down". (Down scale) To make our movie transfers for the highest quality "public consumption" transfers. Quite possibly one of maybe 4 or 5 places in the country that actually do and offer that. Sure there's ai apps and programs out there.... But you have to remember... It all starts with having high resolution detail of the original film before you can get a great transfer.... Also ...in addition to high resolution quality... Our files contain much more color detail information for better post process editing, color correction, time correction... And so on. Dealing with overly compressed, low resolution files.... Well ... working on those is like trying to polish a turd...lol. ...our lowest price archiving is not cheap... $1.00 per foot... But compared to what you have been getting from other vendors... Well I guarantee you would be absolutely amazed at the quality difference. Feel free to reach out to me if you want to try a short 50 ft roll... I absolutely guarantee satisfaction. ... And if you send me a role that you have previously had done by another provider... And the file they provided you.... And finally your final edit of their file... Allowing me to use it as a comparison.... I will redo that role that you had previously done... For free.
What Christmas is supposed to look like.
It’s so interesting that at the time this footage was filmed, it was only 69 years ago from the Civil War back then
Oh thanks Donna for doing these. You were you were born a fish. 😊 You were the cutest little girl. I love seeing these and allowing me a chance to remember the good old days. Love you Aunt Kathy
Sok kn
Are your parents still alive if I may ask?
What year is this from
My grandmother died two years before this in 1936 from pneumonia. My mom was 14 years old in 1938 and had 11 siblings. My grandfather was a sharecropper in Tennessee. They would have been lucky to have any kind of Christmas at all.
This film is a treasure! My dad was 16 and mom was 13. Their families could never have afforded a movie camera then. In fact we never had one. The film looks better than some filmed in the 50s and 60s.
Carlo your English is fine😂
Love the guys love for his dog❤
Everybody dressed up and looked so elegant.
Your family looks like they had a lot of fun adventures and a lot of good times.😊
40s??
Don't know the exact year of that one... Digitized it for a client. My guess late 40s... Or during the '50s.
Clothes look handmade lovely
.... Many of the clothes were handmade. Grandma was great with the sewing machine! 😊
How wonderful to have all of these beautiful family memories. I wish my parents had a movie camera when we were growing up. There are a few films of us that my uncle took when we were growing up, but they were very short and none of Christmas.
I was a month old on Christmas 1956. Our tree always looked like yours with the ice cicles on up until the late 60s. We had to hang them one at a time and make sure the ends were even. What a beautiful family.
Me too - a month old
Born 17 th November, 1956, in London, UK. My mum was born in New Jersey so I am especially interested in this lovely family.
@@lindal3966 l was born November 23. Every seven years my birthday falls on Thanksgiving Day.
So many mixed emotions watching this. It could be Christmas just gone such is the clarity of the pictures but its nearly a century ago. Beautiful and terrifying all at once; how time passes by so quickly. The young lass, then only 4 years old who is peering into the camera is now, if she is still with us, 90 years old.
That is Harriet (My mom)... And I am happy to say she is still with us and sharp as a whip!
@@Archive16 Wow, great to hear!
@@Archive16 I have just watched 1948 Christmas. Your grandparents must have had a wonderful life. I loved the video of them on their honeymoon in Panama. Reminded me a bit of one of those old Hollywood movies filmed in some exotic location.
I was born in late 1956. I wish my parents had a movie camera when l was a kid. My uncle had one but no one knows what happened to the films.
That looked like a nice place to live.
Amazing... looks like Kodachrome ❤
Как будто побывала в прошлом! Так странно осознавать, что этот день на пленке никогда больше не повторится. Спасибо за чудесный экскурс в чудесное прошлое 😊❤
This is wonderful. My parents ( long gone now) were 9 and 12 years of age in 1937. Somehow , watching this makes me feel closer to them. ♡ ♡
It's worse! Pajamas and bedroom slippers out in public!
On Christmas day in 1958 I was just 67 days old. So I couldn't remember a thing back then, as a matter of fact I was in a bassinet @ that time. If I should fall asleep and flash back to 1958? I would see what it was like then, the lifestyles the radio stations that were playing music back in those days including 1958 because at that time when I was a baby I didn't know anything was going on back then. But I do remember hearing the TV sets back in 1958 were black & white. And we only had three TV channels to watch. ABC, CBS, and NBC! And they were on 3 local TV channels in my hometown.KCRA 3, KXTV 10, And KOVR 13. All 3 were out of Stockton Sacramento California.
Simple times!
I was born the following year, But those Christmas times were far more interesting than the current ones.
Thanks for sharing !
Those little kids were so cute. I wondered what they were listening to on the gramophone.
I watched the whole Forgie "series" of Christmas films last year and again this year. Love the quality of the movies, Mr. Forgie Sr. must have had the latest in home movie gear & film in those days. They looked like such a fun warm family - and all good looking - and they obviously all adored each other. If our world could be full of families like that it would be paradise on earth.
There's a photo of my mom and grandma from Christmas 1942. My mom is almost a year old sitting on a rocking horse and my gorgeous young grandma is beside her in her robe, hair done with red lipstick. Similar tinseled tree and coloring as this film. Interesting that it's even the same year! Very nice film video to cherish.
I was five years old in 1962.
I am the infant in that movie!
Wish I could remember the Fifties.
The colors of this film is outstanding. Looks like it was filmed recently.
Got to love that old Kodachrome 👍

Hi! Thank you so much for sharing these lovely vintage films! They bring a feeling of happiness and nostalgia for a more normal time in sociaty. Happy holidays! Tanya
Yup. Little boys were so psyched to get a gun. So sad they can’t play like that now. They play army and cowboy and Indians all day outside. Then grow up and don’t ever shoot people. Yup. Let the kids play
Wow...very beautiful, but that wouldn't have been what Christmas was like for my mom and her 3 siblings and my baba...they were lucky to get an orange in their stocking and 1 gift...the orange was a very big treat for them...my baba did the best she could...
I was 27 days old!
