View Of The River At The Time Of Flood With Water — Clip Details

Shot on 8mm film in 1961, this vintage home movie captures a dramatic flood in Wauconda, Illinois. A submerged parking sign for 'Ranglin's River Grove' stands partially underwater, with a dark car barely visible in the floodwaters. Bare trees and a wooden post emerge from the rising water under an overcast sky. The footage shows natural film grain and slight camera shake, offering a raw, authentic look at a historical weather event. This archival clip is ideal for documentaries, historical content, or nostalgic storytelling.
