Up and Down New York (silent)

Description: Description: A 1930s tour around Manhattan Island features plenty of high angle photography, with aviation-based footage a novelty at the time showing the island's skylines and architecture. With Times Square glowing and classic early 20th century landscape features and on-the-ground immersion in large crowds in the lower East Side markets, Chinatown, and Fifth Avenue. With Black community members in Harlem, and children directly addressing the camera.
