Shot on 8mm film in 1938, this vintage home movie captures a group of nurses walking and smiling outside the Hotel Berkshire in Reading, Pennsylvania. Dressed in white uniforms with caps, they carry coats and bags as they move along the sidewalk. The black-and-white footage shows classic mid-20th century street life, with period cars and buildings in the background. The camera follows the group with a slightly shaky, handheld motion, preserving the authentic feel of a personal home movie from the era. This archival clip offers a nostalgic glimpse into healthcare workers' daily life during the 1930s.
