Man Wearing Blue Shirt And Glasses Eating At Picnic — Clip Details

A man in a blue and white plaid shirt and tortoiseshell glasses eats from a container at a sunny outdoor picnic. Another man in a similar shirt sits beside him, both wearing casual summer attire. The scene captures a relaxed moment at Jones Beach, New York, in 1956, with food items like a red ketchup bottle and a fruit can visible on the table. Shot on 8mm film, the footage shows natural color and slight grain, evoking a nostalgic, authentic home movie feel from the mid-1950s.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit
Useful for 1950s home-movie requests needing an outdoor New York beach picnic cutaway with adults eating in casual summer clothing.
Period detail
The plaid shirts, tortoiseshell glasses, paper cups and table condiments support a mid-1950s leisure setting consistent with the supplied Jones Beach metadata.
Home-movie behavior
The value is in the unstaged picnic behavior, with seated adults eating and talking while the camera observes from close range.
What appears in frame
Visible elements include two adult men, plaid shirts, eyeglasses, paper cups, a red condiment bottle, a fruit can, food containers and sunlit picnic seating.
Film character
The 8mm color image has soft focus, visible grain, uneven exposure and handheld framing that give the scene a direct home-movie texture.
Edit role
An editor could use this as a brief insert, family-memory beat, food cutaway or transition within a sequence about 1950s leisure and beach outings.
Historical context
The scene shows casual outdoor social dining at Jones Beach, presenting mid-century recreational life through a private home-movie viewpoint.
Research note
Adults' faces and possible product labels are visible, so likeness and trademark review may be needed in addition to any film copyright assessment.
Research search match
Likely matches searches for 1950s Jones Beach picnic footage, 8mm family outing, vintage beach food scene and adults eating outdoors.
Archive pairing path
Pair first with adjacent shots from the same reel, then other 1956 Jones Beach material, then broader 1950s picnic, beach and family-leisure footage.
