About this footage
A workshop in Yucaipa takes up a surprising share of this 1964 California footage. The camera moves slowly over a wooden hull resting on supports, yellow-painted beams and pipe frames, gears and pulleys, and a green instrument panel full of round gauges, with station marks like "STA-110 AFT" written on the timber.
Sightseeing fills much of the rest. At Palm Springs, the aerial tramway's cables stretch over a desert canyon toward a steel tower, and visitors lean on the railing at a mountain overlook above the town. At Disneyland, crowds pass a pole hung with green glass globes, and the lit Disneyland sign glows at night. Elsewhere, waves break on a rocky shore, and a station wagon sits outside a wooden house by a lake. Children appear at an Easter egg hunt, around a Christmas tree, and at a birthday table with a candle-topped cake in Inglewood.
Useful for projects about home-built boats and aircraft, Palm Springs tourism, or Disneyland in the 1960s.
