Nice - i came across these videos several weeks ago on my own(!!!!!) - it is fantastic to see how the USA / UK / Europe was in the last 18th/early 19th century - very strage to see videos from 1905 or earlier etc as there was with far "more modern" activity than i was expecting. Colorising these films makes them very real.

My favourite is this vido as i personally walked the entire length of this road when i went to San Francisco and to see how it was then versus what it was like when i walked down it !!!

Favourite :

One thing that should be noted is that this is 1906...two years before the Ford Model T's release...yet there are plenty of cars around. This notion that cars were not common before the Model T is simply not true. From the video you can see it is already approaching 50% of the street traffic in San Francisco. Also note obviously this video was taken before the Great San Francisco earthquake of 1906 that destroyed 80% of the city.

Also you can see in 1911 New York City was already covered with tallish buildings..not later in the 1930's when the Empire State building was put up.

One of the reasons I post these videos is because they can reveal alot...and can quickly clear up many misconceptions.

So far just cold..no snow.

which State are you in ? Here in Florida we got cold chills, enough to bother this Karachiate. I am still enjoying this sudden drop in temp but seeing the videos from other states, its scary how cars are sliding uncontrollably on the roads due to Black ice.

Some retail chains Americans would be surprised knowing they have such a large international presence

IHOP - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

IHOP (US: /ˈaɪ.hɒp/ EYE-hop; acronym for International House of Pancakes) is an American multinational pancake house restaurant chain that specializes in American breakfast foods. It is owned by Dine Brands Global—a company formed after IHOP's purchase of Applebee's, with 99% of the restaurants run by independent franchisees.

While IHOP's focus is on breakfast foods, it also offers a menu of lunch and dinner items. The company has 1,841 locations in the Americas (United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru, Ecuador and Guatemala), the Middle East (United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Qatar) and the South Asian Subcontinent (India and Pakistan), including 161 that are owned by area licensees and 1,680 that are franchised.[2][3] While many of its locations are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the chain's minimum operating hours are 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
