That is great! I love the humor of the "all mighty hand." The kid at the peanut cart was cute! Was living much more simple back then? Nice find Hunter. Been a long time for a great find like this one.

What always amazes me is that you can look into the face of a small kid and you know that by now that kid is most likely already dead. Always reminds me of how short our lives are.:-?

I almost went to the piano and played while I watched it.

I don't know which specific technique, but here is a website that describes the many different ways early movies were made in colour

http://www.widescreenmuseum.com/oldcolor/oldcolor.htm

What many people don't know is that there were colour movies before there were talkies. :yeah:
