A Germany centric Then and Now. A bit unusual.

A link for you Goldie. 1922 Kodak colour film footage - a bit of 'cine' history.
"This clip is a very early, full-color Kodachrome film made by Kodak in 1922 to test new film stock and color processing. It is a lovely little four-and-a-half minutes of pretty actresses gesturing for the camera. The color and lighting are exquisite—all warm reds with flattering highlights—making it a purely enjoyable thing to watch."

Although, there may still be a place for film - I was surprised today to see that the DOLLAR store sells disposable film cameras (for $3!).
There are other great Toronto Archive photos of ice skating and harvesting on Grenadier pond.
Just for fun, Goldie.
Then. Wisdom, Montana; in Kodachrome. 1940s.

Nice Montana street, but I'm not convinced that the foreground buildings are one-and-the-same.
This building appears in both images (attached-circled).
Always 'fun' to explore our images in detail - there are often hidden surprises.
I found this picture several years ago before I found this thread. 1st job was at the Kresge store surrounding it.

Then and Now for February 11, 2013. A tidbit of cinema history today.
Then. Hyland Theatre. Opened 1948. It had just closed for good in this picture - June-ish 2001 [Demolished in 2003]. I was just strolling down Yonge that day; tonight I have a reason to use this old photo.
