Born in Richmond Indiana on August 24, 1958. My mother was 14 in 1938, she lived in Connersville. During the war she was a ‘Rosie the Riveter.’
That's amazing!
Mostly ghosts now these vibrant lives. Their world is gone, thoughts, dreams and fears. Time took them all and what with them is done we can not say but we have this film to save the day. 'Remember Us' it seems to say and so we shall. 'Rest In Peace' now on our way.
Very touching....Thank you.
I like the hairstyles of this era! Notice how well dressed the people are! No torn up clothes, no tattooed covered creatures. It’s hard to believe that nearly everyone in this video has passed except for maybe the children. They’d be in their 90’s if still with us.
It is amazing to see people touching each other. We have become a cold culture.
Fun to watch. I worked for the Central National Bank. Building is still the same in 2019.
I agree, History was always my favorite subject. I worked in Richmond at Perpetual Recycling Solutions now known as DAK Americas, a plastic bottle recycling company, I was a lead operator for about a year. It was a nice little town! The construction was quite annoying though.
Thanks, I was trying to find what intersection this was. Looks like Main and 27.
Just saw my mother walk by. She was 23 in 38. She died in 2008. I was born in 47.
1938! Benny Goodman era a Orquestra número um do País onde em 16 de Janeiro desse mesmo ano realuzou o Primeiro Grande Concerto de Jazz/Swing no Carnegie Hall de Nova York e Bing Crosby era o Rouxinol da América!
Também em Setembro de 1938, GLENN MILLER realizava as primeiras gravações com a Orquestra que se tornaria célebre até os dias atuais!!!
Dang. Crossing the street was kinda sketchy back then. Looks like car traffic had the right-of-way instead of pedestrians.
ladies was sharp back then. 20 years before me but more like what life i loved was. we made today suck. all of us LORD heal our land
Downtown looked very busy and everyone was well dressed, lots of autos driving around even though the 1930s depression wouldn't end until WW2 started.
Very few overweight people. We've come a long way haven't we.
Healthy food was cheap back then
Do you have any footage of the old race tracks in richmond, indiana
See how clean and well dressed most people were back then
so mostly women in Richmond back in 1938?
The men were all working so the women would have money to shop, some things never change.
That was exactly what I was going to say.. moms/daughters/wives would be shopping.. men worked..
Love the clothing
So nice to see women being ladies !! so much more attractive to my mind.
The woman appear sturdy and healthy. Some stout but none obese.
You know it’s summer or spring because nearly everyone is wearing white shoes! Come spring, self-respecting people put away their dark, winter clothing and accessories and wore light colors. Come fall, they’d switch back.
look maw i knew with out worry who the real gals are
You can tell rich from the poor .. by the dresses and pressed clothing.
Where are all the Black Americans?
Richmond? With no black folk? Really?
Yes, a very few. Remember, this is 1938 so the Black people were on the other side of town. If anyone had filmed there, there’d be almost no White people.
@@mariekatherine5238 Makes sense, and nobody would be filming over there sigh
Richmond Indiana, not Virginia.
Probably eating lunch at the Woolworth lunch counter.
