1950's 8mm Home Movies by my grandparents Harry and Ecla Sue






This 5-min clip is composed of several shots, all shot at different times. CLIP ONE: Shot in the late 1950's in Okmulgee, OK. People include: Zell, Carrol , Dorethy Kiehl(Harry's Mother), Uncle Eddie, my grandfather Harry. CLIP TWO: Unknown Date and Location. Most likely shot in Colorado or New Mexico. This was shot by Harrywhile out of town at work with the Seisemograph company. This clip is comprised of Harry and coworkers on the job and has some nice scenery. The black DeSoto parked along the road, was my grandfather Harry's car at the time. This clip was more than likely originally found on the same 3" reel as the Clip three which would mean that this clip was shot in the early 50's. CLIP THREE: Shot approximatly 1950. A clip of my father Dan as a baby. Most likely shot up north in Colorado where, i believe, the family lived briefly at that time. The last clip is of my Uncle Eddie's' 4th birthday. My father, Danny makes a short appearance at 4:27; he's the one wearing the black jacket and plaid shirt. My uncle is the one wearing the grey shirt.
