Shot on 8mm film in 1938, this vintage home movie captures a bustling street scene in Washington. A horse-drawn buggy with a man in suspenders rides through the crowd, while a young boy holds a sign reading 'MOURNER' near a vintage truck and a building with a 'W K DEPARTMENT' sign. The grainy black-and-white footage shows people in period clothing, including a woman in a light dress and a man in a dark suit, amidst a mix of early automobiles and horse-drawn transport. The scene evokes a sense of community life and transition in the late 1930s.
