About 6,000 cooking and kitchen clips, peaking in the 1960s. Kitchens weren't the obvious thing to film, so what's here tends to come wrapped inside a holiday or a party, which is part of what makes it useful.
You get mothers and grandmothers at the stove, birthday cakes mid-assembly, holiday spreads, the slow choreography of a midcentury kitchen. It's led by New York and California, almost all on 8mm and 16mm.

This footage suits food and lifestyle campaigns, social-history documentaries, and any period scene that needs a real kitchen of the decade, appliances and all. The stovetop and cake-assembly shots are the common pulls.
The 1950s kitchens are pastel and brand-new, the appliances a selling point in themselves. The 1960s are the peak and the most colorful. The 1970s bring darker wood, harvest gold, and the first convenience food on the counter.
