HOME MOVIES: WORLD WAR II

Year Published: 1940s

Format: 16mm

Description: This 1940s home movie dates to WWII. We're not precisely certain where it was filmed, but the segment at the 7:00 mark where you'll see a Seaboard Railroad passenger train, was shot in St. Petersburg, Florida. At the 7:29 mark, you will see a young man in a military outfit, presumably home on leave. Note the "V" for "Victory" in the window of the house -- indicating that a man from the home is serving in the military. A short time later at the 8:37 mark is a bond rally. Again we're not certain where this was shot, but we believe it may be Guttenberg, New Jersey based on a couple of clues in film (including Women's Auxiliary flags that seem to have that word on them).
