A 1938 Journey Through Iconic West Coast American Scenes (silent)
This 1938 home movie offers a rich tapestry of scenes across notable locations in the United States. It includes footage of Mt. Hood or Mt. Rainier, the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge featuring Key System trains, and the Golden Gate International Exposition as viewed from across the water. San Francisco’s Chinatown is decorated with banners, and various shots of the Golden Gate Bridge highlight its grandeur. Other scenes showcase Yellowstone National Park, a possible brief glimpse of Olvera Street, and a graduation ceremony. The film captures an ox-driven caravan celebrating the opening of the Northwest Territory on April 20, 1938, and concludes with vibrant city traffic in Akron, Ohio.
