Some extra pictures

There are seven extra pictures below. The house seen on the first four pictures may be the one in Pornichet. The last picture is from Amiens – the same landscape you can see in the older part of the blog. Only now with more surroundings visible.

Unfortunately, we haven´t been able to watch nor transfer five of the films because we missed them while transfering other films and now we don´t have a 9.5 mm projector anymore...

There are some extra clips here in realmedia (46.2 MB) and windowsmedia (47 MB) format. There is perhaps nothing special in them, mostly people.

Original 9.5 mm Pathé format has good quality. If I don't find the descendants, I'll donate the films to a french archive and perhaps then it's possible to have good digital copies.

These two pictures up are from the film "Crap a Pornichet - dans le jardin."

A house in Amiens and "lycée" in St Omer have been recognised

I got a message with nice pictures of the house which can be seen in the beginning of the film Sortie rue Lisbonne. Carpentier. Yvette. Hiver 1931-32. Thank you, Marie-France!

Here is another film shot in Amiens: Amiens_Camon
(Windowsmedia)
I'm not 100% sure, if all the shots are from Amiens. For example that Cathedral in the end can be from somewhere else.

The school on the films is Lycée mixte Ribot.
