★★★★ · Waterloo, Indiana early 1950s · claren44 · 2012-11-22
These home movies were taken in Waterloo Indiana during the early 1950s (googled a few cars & businesses shown). Scenes include: a crowd at a water ski show; shots in and around local businesses such as Waterloo Appliances, D & D Restaurant & Skelley gas station, a Texaco station, a Stardard White Crown gas station, Henderson & Kegin Plumbing & Heating, Dunn's Dairy Bar, and others; and some local residents. There is also some aerial footage which is almost too dark to make out, & footage of a small plane on the ground.

Kudos for the below reviewer who looked these up. This was an enjoyable reel for the most part. Obviously the filmmaker wanted to make a bit of a "Our Town" thing (in between shots of his family?) and somewhat fails with his darkish attempts. Still, some lovely shots of small town life on display here.
