That should be in the lounge section but i think i sent just one message in this section in 19 years. I'd like to have a machine to return in the past and see that in real. There is a lot of similar video as well of 40's , 50's etc on Youtube. When it is boring i look these video and i feel a bit nostalgic.

@michel-lemieux Thanks very much for finding these on YouTube and sharing - really great stuff. I can't wrap my head around how much interesting material there is online  - these certainly qualify!

@michel-lemieux I've seen this one before somewhere. Amazing how many cars there were in 1906, given all the public transportation. Later that year, San Fran looked like this:
