Motel Pool with Turquoise Water and Building — Clip Details

Shot on 8mm film in 1958, this vintage home movie captures a sun-drenched view of a mid-century motel in Las Vegas, Nevada. The clip features a long, rectangular swimming pool with turquoise water, surrounded by a white concrete deck and sparse greenery. A two-story building with tan stucco walls and reddish-brown paneling lines the poolside, its balconies adorned with patterned railings. A few indistinct figures in period clothing stroll near the pool, and a yellow-and-white striped umbrella stands near a table. The footage exhibits classic Super 8 grain, slight blurriness, and a nostalgic, sun-bleached color palette characteristic of 1950s home movies.

Topics & Keywords

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Supports requests for 1950s Las Vegas travel, motel, and leisure footage for documentary inserts, education programs, or period recreation reference.
Period detail: The low-rise poolside motel architecture, balcony railings, sparse landscaping, and striped umbrella may show mid-century roadside lodging style.
Home-movie behavior: The camera observes the pool court from a visitor's distance, with a few indistinct people moving casually through an unstaged motel setting.
What appears in frame: Visible elements include a turquoise swimming pool, white pool deck, tan two-story building, reddish-brown balcony panels, railings, lawn, shrubs, and a striped umbrella.
Film character: The 8mm color footage has soft focus, sun-washed exposure, visible grain, and slight handheld framing that preserve its home-movie texture.
Edit role: An editor could use this as a Las Vegas motel cutaway, travel transition, leisure insert, or quiet memory beat between more active scenes.
Historical context: The scene presents mid-century vacation lodging and poolside leisure without enough visible detail to identify a specific motel or event.
Research note: People are visible but indistinct; copyright, likeness, and any property identification should be reviewed separately before use.
Research search match: Useful for searches such as 1958 Las Vegas motel pool 8mm, mid-century swimming pool home movie, and vintage Nevada roadside lodging footage.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with same-reel Las Vegas travel shots, then other 1958 Nevada clips, then broader 1950s motel, pool, and vacation footage.
