Vintage Edmonton Film: Edmonton (1969)


Thanks to Brian B, this truly stunning Super 8mm film of Edmonton in 1969 provides almost too many nuggets of Edmonton History to mention in it's 5+ minutes. 

Starting Downtown with panoramic shots from the southside, comes up to Jasper Avenue with some familiar signs and structures before making a detour into some idyllic shots of Seba Beach. Then it's back to Downtown before the final breathtaking stretch down Jasper Avenue East, where the Dreamland Theatre and some indelible shots of the buildings and neon signs put a cherry on top.

This is truly a film to watch more than once to take everything in:
