    Description

    Please excuse my crummy photos.  The viewer has a bright spot that dilutes the color.  These were taken with an Iphone on a viewer screen (lots of distortion and dilution in my photos).
    The film is in very good vintage condition.  Film is Crisper with good clarity and rich color in person.  I just wanted to be able to show a little smattering of what was on the reels.
    The cannister is dated with some portions taken in 1959, 1960, and 1961.
    Description of what is on the reel:
    Astoria, Oregon (shot of the Totem Column, Harbor area)
    A neighborhood street (presumably) where they lived, with lawns and old cars parked in the driveways.
    Oregon Coast Shots.
    The Peter Iredale Shipwreck (on the Oregon Coast).  This was taken when you could see most of the ship.  Less is visible today.  Nice pans of an entire side of the ship.
    A family BBQ, grilling hot dogs.
    Different Women in Swimsuits shots.
    1960 - EUCLID Beach Amusement Park, Ohio.  A wonderful section of film.  GREAT Shots of some of the attractions.  Coming down off the roller coaster??  Then some darker shots - again of the roller coaster??  The regular Carousel.  (sort of dark shots, but quite a bit).  The Helicopter ride - nice shots including signage.  Awesome shots of the Racing Derby Ride (and quite a bit).  Nice shots of the Waterfall ride.  Swimming in the pool.  The pier.  The Tiered water fountain.
    Then a family boat ride (reel says Fisher's boat).  With water skiing footage.
    1961 - VIRGINIA CITY, Nevada.  GREAT Shots, including:  The family talking with the man and the burro, The Virginia City Sign, The Bucket of Blood Saloon signage, walking down the sidewalk (shot shot).  A nice section.
    -----------
    Really a very nice film.  Good color in very good condition.  No smells.  Super minor grains here and there, but overall VERY GOOD, and MUCH CLEARER with GOOD COLOR in person.
    Shipping within the United States will be .00 via Media Mail.
    THANKS!
