Driving & Road Trips by Decade

1950s Driving & Road Trips

The 1950s are the heart of the home-movie era — Kodachrome color, new suburbs, tail-finned cars, and families who finally owned a camera.

Classic road trip footage with vintage automobiles, highway scenery, roadside attractions, and cross-country driving adventures.
