Smiling Girl in White Bathing Cap Dives Into an Outdoor Pool — Clip Details

Probably Virginia, circa 1964, home movie footage of a girl at an outdoor swimming pool. She stands at the edge in a white rubber bathing cap and a red one-piece swimsuit with white and purple stripes, arms swung back, and turns to grin at the camera. She then bends forward and dives, and the handheld camera tilts down to follow her into the blue water. Sunbathers on webbed chaise lounges, a chain-link fence, a stone wall and brick apartment buildings fill the background.

Topics & Keywords

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Answers requests for authentic circa 1964 American summer footage, a child at a pool, for documentaries, museum loops and nostalgic commercial inserts.
Period detail: A white rubber bathing cap, a one-piece swimsuit cut and webbed aluminium chaise lounges point to the early 1960s.
Home-movie behavior: The girl breaks her diving pose to grin at whoever is filming, an unstaged moment between child and family camera before she dives.
What appears in frame: A girl in a white cap and red striped swimsuit, sunbathers on teal lounges, a seated blonde woman, a chain-link fence, a stone wall, brick apartment buildings and blue pool water.
Film character: Projected 8mm film with visible grain, warm saturated reds, soft focus and a handheld tilt that follows the dive.
Edit role: Works as a short memory beat or summer cutaway, and the dive into the water gives a natural transition out of a scene.
Historical context: Outdoor pools beside apartment buildings were common gathering places in summer, and this footage records the swimwear and poolside furniture of that setting.
Research note: The scan carries no copyright claim beyond the archive's; the girl, a minor, and the adults are unidentified and recognisable, and the pool may be private property, so likeness and property use need separate review.
Research search match: Matches searches such as 1960s girl diving into pool, vintage bathing cap footage, 8mm home movie swimming, and circa 1964 summer poolside.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with 'Couple relaxing in poolside lounge chairs' from this reel, then the reel's Mount Vernon clips for a Virginia summer trip, then other early-1960s swimming footage.
