Shot on 8mm film in 1966, this vintage home movie captures a sun-drenched street corner in San Gabriel, California. The camera pans across a cluster of retro signs for local businesses, including the Golden Lion restaurant offering Cantonese-American food and the Frost Real Estate office. A yellow sign for Chinese American Food and a 'Truck Route' sign are also visible. The footage features the characteristic grain and color saturation of 8mm film, with a slightly shaky, handheld feel, evoking a nostalgic slice of mid-1960s Americana.
