Woman In Black And Red One Piece Swimsuit Swimming In A Pool — Clip Details

YONKERS NEW YORK-1953: A woman in a black and red one-piece swimsuit swims in a pool, captured on vintage 8mm film. The footage shows her gliding through turquoise water, with the camera following her movement. The image has a distinct blue-green tint and visible film grain, scratches, and dust, characteristic of 1950s home movies. The scene evokes a nostalgic, summery atmosphere, with the swimmer's form partially obscured by water distortion and the film's age. This authentic archival clip offers a glimpse into mid-century leisure and personal filmmaking.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: 1950s Yonkers home-movie pool footage suited to documentary or educational edits about mid-century leisure, swimming, and private summer recreation.
Period detail: The clip may show a 1953 backyard or community pool scene, with era context supported by the source metadata rather than visible landmarks or dated signage.
Home-movie behavior: The camera observes an underwater swimmer from a close, informal home-movie perspective, emphasizing motion through water more than posed identification.
What appears in frame: Visible elements include turquoise pool water, a submerged swimmer, dark film borders, water distortion, soft focus, dust specks, and scratches.
Film character: The 8mm scan has blue-green color shift, visible grain, gate edges, scratches, dust, and softened underwater exposure that mark it as physical home-movie film.
Edit role: An editor could use this as a brief insert, memory beat, or watery transition within sequences about summer recreation, family films, or mid-century leisure.
Historical context: The scene reflects personal recreational filming in the 1950s, showing swimming as a private or local leisure activity without identifiable public context.
Research note: No faces, brands, or private property details are clearly visible in these frames, but copyright, likeness, and location clearance should still be reviewed separately.
Research search match: Useful search matches include 1950s 8mm swimming pool home movie, Yonkers New York pool footage, underwater swimmer archival film, and vintage summer recreation.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with adjacent footage from the same reel, then other Yonkers or 1953 material, then broader 1950s swimming, pools, and summer leisure scenes.
