Ferry Boat And Sign For Peninsula State Park — Clip Details

Shot on 8mm film in 1964, this vintage home movie captures the C.G. Richter ferry at a dock on Washington Island, Wisconsin. Passengers and vehicles board the white ferry under a soft, overcast sky, with the calm water reflecting the muted tones of the scene. The footage concludes with a clear view of the 'PENINSULA STATE PARK' sign, evoking a nostalgic sense of mid-century American travel and leisure. The grainy texture and color palette are characteristic of 8mm home movies from the era.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Useful for 1960s documentary or educational edits needing Wisconsin ferry travel, state park tourism, or mid-century Great Lakes visitor footage.
Period detail: The 8mm color stock, ferry styling, dock scene, and park sign support a 1964 home-movie view of regional travel and outdoor recreation.
Home-movie behavior: The clip has a visitor-shot perspective, watching passengers and vehicles board before turning to a simple destination sign.
What appears in frame: Visible elements include the C.G. Richter ferry, dock pilings, boarding passengers, calm water, distant shoreline, overcast sky, and Peninsula State Park sign.
Film character: The footage carries soft 8mm grain, muted color, slight exposure variation, and handheld framing typical of amateur travel films.
Edit role: An editor could use it as a travel insert, ferry transition, Wisconsin location cutaway, or short memory beat before a park visit sequence.
Historical context: The scene shows public ferry access and state park wayfinding as part of mid-century leisure travel, without proving a specific event or trip purpose.
Research note: People and vessel names are visible, so likeness, signage, trademark, and location-identification review may be needed apart from footage copyright.
Research search match: Likely matches searches for 1964 8mm Wisconsin ferry footage, Washington Island ferry dock, C.G. Richter ferry, and Peninsula State Park sign.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with same-reel Wisconsin travel footage, then 1964 Washington Island or Peninsula State Park material, then broader ferry and state park tourism scenes.
