    Description

    16mm Travel Home Movie
    It appears to be done in 1956 or maybe earlier.
    It is 20 minutes long and fills a 10" reel.
    I enjoyed it because it was very well done and it felt a little like watching a vintage National Geographic documentary, without the sound of course.

    No smells or damage and it runs through a projector smoothly.
    There are no splices and it has excellent color and focus at all times.
    Various airports and airplanes are shown in parts.
    They got an official red carpet treatment from the Japanese government when they
    arrived. It must have been somebody important on the plane.
    The family is from Huntington Beach California and their last name is Peek.
    They were apparently wealthy and connected to some important people.
    There is possibly the prime minister of Japan included? IDK?
    Footage of the city of Hiroshima, Tokyo and aerial footage of Mt. Fuji.
    People living in boats in Hong Kong Harbor.
    Philippines and China
    Water Buffaloes in Singapore
    Thailand Canals and Temples
    Taj Mahal, Temples, and Snake Charmer  in India
    The pictures I took were taken in a dark room and are a little blurry,
    but the actual focus and color are excellent as I already said.
    There are no returns accepted.
    I sold this once and it spent 2 months in a post office in France
    and never got delivered. It eventually got back to me.
    There will be no shipping to France this time.
