Old Footage Corner

If you have 10 minutes to spare, you could do worse than to watch this restored footage and sound recorded in 1911 New York.

Fascinating to watch. How smart everyone looked. Folk must have been so optimistic, not knowing what the rest of the century had in store.

Life in the poverty line in 1963. Makes you wonder if things have change at all or just the definition of “poverty line”?
