Title Card and Calendar for Port of Alexandria — Clip Details

Vintage 8mm home movie footage from Cairo, Egypt, in 1946. The clip opens with a title card for 'The Port of Alexandria,' featuring a blue-tinted, archival document from British surveys between 1857 and 1858. The scene transitions to a close-up of a 1946 wall calendar for July, showing the month's dates in a classic grid format. The film exhibits characteristic Super 8 grain, color fading, and slight motion blur, capturing a nostalgic, historical moment of mid-20th century Egypt. The footage is ideal for documentaries, historical projects, or retro-themed content.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Useful for 1940s Egypt archive requests needing a brief title-card or calendar insert tied to Alexandria port documentation.
Period detail: The visible July 1946 wall calendar and English title card provide strong mid-1940s date clues, with Cairo, Egypt supported by clip metadata.
Home-movie behavior: The close framing and pointer-like hand movement give the clip an informal home-movie record of documents rather than a staged presentation.
What appears in frame: Visible elements include an English Alexandria port title card, blue-tinted paper, July 1946 wall calendar, printed date grid, wall surface, and a hand holding a pointer.
Film character: The 8mm scan shows soft focus, blue-purple color shift, visible grain, gate edges, and slight handheld instability as archival texture.
Edit role: An editor could use this as a dated insert, research transition, chapter opener, or cutaway before Alexandria or Egypt travel footage.
Historical context: The clip visually situates a home-movie record around printed port information and a July 1946 calendar without showing the port itself.
Research note: Clearance review should consider copyright in printed documents and calendars separately from any limited likeness concern from the visible hand.
Research search match: Relevant searches include 1946 Egypt home movie, Cairo calendar insert, Alexandria port title card, July 1946 calendar, and 8mm travel archive.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with the same reel, then other Cairo or Egypt 1946 material, then port, calendar, title-card, and printed-document inserts.
