Shot on 8mm film in 1953, this vintage home movie captures a weathered informational sign for the Salton Sea, noting it is 241 feet below sea level. The sign stands on a sandy beach with a picnic table and chair nearby, under a bright blue sky. In the background, the calm waters of the Salton Sea stretch to a distant wooden pier. The footage exhibits classic Super 8 grain and color saturation, evoking mid-century American vacation nostalgia. This archival clip offers authentic period detail for documentaries, historical content, or retro-themed projects.
