most of these buildings are still standing there - great footage, it feels like a time machine.
***But there are PSYCHO HOBOS sitting on the street in front shooting drugs, smoking crack & using the public sidewalk as a TOILET and the DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS DO NOTHING!***They have turned San Francisco into a GARBAGE DUMP!***Yes...I have a right to complain because I am a 3rd generation SF native and NEVER voted for the democrat criminals running California & San Francisco!***
My grandparents were living in San Francisco at the time and were 24 years old and my mom wasn’t even born yet
Time sure goes by fast
Thank you for this amazing video

@betterthangoat no of course not
He was 24 in 1930
Why would you ask that question???
Absolutely amazing to watch this historic footage. Amazing!
Thx! ;)
NASS I just like old past that I never born in. Lol
why?
@@RichardCockerill Because I enjoy the heck out of seeing how people lived during the past. Everything they experienced. How they dressed. Their attitudes and outlooks. It just fascinates me. Also, I've always been a fan of history.
My grandfather lived in San Francisco during this time and died there at age 35 in 1939. I moved to the city 60 years later and walked and drove up many of the same streets that I'm sure he also did. It's great to see this film and actually see what he saw back then.
You have done an incredible job with these historic films.
Thx ;)

Market street 1930
Loved this nostalgic trip back in time! I was born and raised in SF in the 50’s. So many of the buildings are familiar. Everyone was so nicely dressed. Most people wore hats and when my mom and I shopped at The Emporium and Hales (anyone remember Hales?) and had lunch at Manning’s we always dressed nicely. No pants or, Heaven forbid, torn jeans in those days!
Same here. My mom would dress us up and we would take the bus into SF and spend the day shopping at The Emporium. For lunch we would go to Manning’s or Tad’s Steaks on Powell. It makes me so sad to see how much SF has deteriorated.
Thank God we don't have to walk around in suits and ties and hats anymore. I agree that some people take it too far and walk around in pajamas, but this is too far in the other direction.
This particular film is one of those shot by movie production companies for later use as rear-projection in scenes shot from "inside a moving car" such as when viewing the driver through the windshield where these would be projected behind the prop car and appear to be "out the back window." YT is awash in these from the Los Angeles area but this is the first one I've seen from San Francisco. The originals, of course, were B&W since films of that era were almost all shot in B&W.
I was wondering why there were so many of these kind of clips around. Surprised these films were saved and survived. I can see Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn talking in the back of a taxi as I watch this.
There is a 1905 film like this of San Francisco before the earthquake. Might this also have been a production film as 1905 would have been when movies were in their infancy.
I could spend hours and hours watching those footage nonstop. A remarkable moment of our modern civilization
This is amazing, I got an idea now what things were like when my grandma grew up. 1912-2016 103yrs old, one month shy of her 104th.
It's like I'm really there riding in the back of mom and dad's car looking out the back window at everything. Great job. So real.
I remember the S. Frey stationary store on Market. Had an incredible number of globes on display on the main floor. Purchased a bottle of Parker "Quink" blue fountain pen ink from the shop. There was a time that "going downtown" meant being dressed up for the occasion.
Look how well presented everyone was? Beautifully classy and modest. Unlike today.
You mean you don't think pajama bottoms, dirty t-shirts and tattoos all over is presentable?
The average people had enough money!
a lot of smartphones still struggle for a great quality. This person did a good job buying that camera. certainly great to see a time when people bonded and technology didnt dominate people. Almsot everyone seems to have the same design of carsback then. Now, with the wide variety, people like to differentiate. These videos are really relaxing and so amazing to watch. Thanks for this wonderful footage. Simpler times!💖💖💝✨
Great video. Thanks! Many buildings still there although from the ferry building down a few blocks is the 1960s Hyatt Regency Embarcadero and Embarcadero Center which tore blocks of those beautiful old buildings plus interspersed are many high-rises from the 70s down Market St. But a lot still there in the Financial District. I am always amazed on what is still standing in SF even pre earthquake.
My favorite find in the past 12 or so years, is at 2:42 mark , to the Left, where you see a Florsheim shoe shop, is the old SF chronicle building (Kearny and Market St), one of the first high rises built in the 1880s I believe, and in the 1960s to revitalize it, someone put this horrible silver aluminum cladding over the entire building , It wasn't until the Ritz Carlton condos bought the building, removed the cladding and revealed it's late 1800s beauty. Of course, some modifications happened and allow them to add several stories to the top, but they did it in a way to not take away from the original buildings look.
I remember when they pulled the front off that building. It was quite a treat to see the original face preserved in such good condition. I believe it was red in color if memory serves.
Wow! it was so much better than it is today. Thanks for bringing this to us.
Why would it be better than today!!!!
How do you figure? It looks just as crowded and even dirtier
@@gloriaortiz1227 Homeless infestation homeless people defecating on the streets drugs crime inflation poverty
@@briancalifornia1 Great Depression, World War 2 with millions murdered, segregation, Jim Crow laws, lynchings.
PLENTY of broke and homeless people living on the streets during the 1930s.
Just beautiful !! I miss SF , used to go there from the time I was a little girl up to just a few years ago.
Travelling in time like this is the ultimate trip!
Old videos are really precious
YOU HAVE DONE AN IMPECCABLE JOB WITH THESE HISTORIC VIDEOS.
thx!! 👍 👍
I can't get enough of these video's they are great
People dressed nicely at that time.
I guess people are just lazier now.
yes no pants on the ground sweaties with t shirt
Where are all the homeless people ?
@@greenminer255 arrested for vagrancy
Even working professionals in San Francisco dress very "California Casual" to go to the office. SF would be a comfortable city to dress up in being that the temperature is lower than most cities in the summer time.
Maybe one day not to far in the future the CITY will become World Class again, ONE DAY. This is a beautiful scene, thumbs up.
I just watched the other footage from 1906. It's amazing how much everything changed in just three decades. It's like a jump from the 19th century to the 20th.
Yeah the 1900s and 1910s still feel like the 1800s but with a few cars. 1920s feel completely different than the previous two decades since cars were more common and there were now radio stations fashion was different to, and horses were completely gone In streets now.
Almost like an earthquake completely demolished the entire city
I love to see people in the day that they cared how they looked, I often wonder why the change.I am a chauffeur, three piece suit every day, I feel comfortable in a suit....................rich...................acoG
***Why the change? Because the democrat criminals have turned The City into a SHITPILE!***
the lefties took over.
@@thethrillofpattaya8404 What a silly comment. The Democrats (or the Republicans) have nothing to do with the way people dress today compared to yesterday. Even the working professionals in SF making 6 figures have dressed very "California Casual" for the last 20 years.
@@thethrillofpattaya8404 What did that grifting phony Republican do to help in the 4 years he was in charge, huh? I guess spending all your time airing your pathetic grievances at klan rallies because Fred hated his orange ass took priority🤷 But you do you, old man.
What a huge difference from nowadays !
As if you are living in a rare and luxurious movie. Greetings from Iraq
Back when California was truly golden!
I drove a taxi there for many years, I recognize so many of those buildings 😀
Amazing how everyone is well dressed and high on life. Not begging for anything and breaking into cars. Best time ever.
I sure am glad you superimposed all of those helpful subscribe graphics every 13 seconds. Without those we'd have _no idea_ how to do it. Maybe next you can teach all of us how to walk and chew gum at the same time.
I imagined my mom and dad walking down that street when they were young.
Keep looking you might see them.
@@stephenchildofthelivinggod1006 I now think of them in the 1990s, and them thinking back to how things changed for them. Just as I think in 2021 how things were in the 60s and 70s.
Ok boomer
@@hanphilnoffz8827 Better a boomer than a bust.
Back when parking on Market Street was a breeze and allowed.
And today they Fight for parking lot
@Bernie Danders BLM don't like you 😐
And no weed
Great video. I always get a kick out of the fact that Market St used to have 4 sets of streetcar tracks, 2 lanes of traffic and cars parked on both sides, and pedestrians managed to navigate adeptly; standing in between approaching streetcars, being able to look both ways, etc, and now we had to decrease car traffic further, after a full 50% of the streetcar tracks had long been taken up and most transit streetcar service had been moved under the street, because people can’t get across it without getting hit, even despite most every block having a traffic light with cycling walk signal 24/7.
my neighbor was born in around 1926 , he was 4 years old by the time it was 1930. he died months ago, yet I still wonder how it felt for him the have seen many changes in life, and when he was in the glorious times ever. He was amazing, I miss my neighbor.
this video cuts off at the most important part, a close-up of the people..thats really what people want to see.
People are fascinated by trips back in time such as this because they realize what a cultural bomb the 21st century is so far and deep down they realize despite wars looming as always, they know it was a more civilized time....
wow ... I recognize that clock tower from the 1906 earthquake video that I watched. Nice to see they got everything fixed up!
^^
This video bringing great memories.
I was 40 and just moved from Virginia.
Those cars bring memories
you were 40 when this footage was shot. So you're 130 years old?! Amazing!!!
@@evanfairbanks2629 just a good joke..
Excellent math... happy new year...
Fantastic job!! By the looks of the autos, this probably isn't any later than 1931. I could even be 1929. I also believe that the parade footage is a few years later, judging by the men's clothing.
Video is so amazing, audio leaves so much to be desired. But thank you for sharing.
Love your clips.
SF is full of the most Cali_fur_ny-A's curve, narrow, twisty, up and down roads and Ave-s or Streets but you got the straightest of all, if not the ONLY!, yehhhh The Market Street.
Technically, this is a trip _up_ Market Street, taken from the back of an automobile heading towards Twin Peaks, rather than the front of a streetcar headed towards the Ferry Building. Mostly, it's a sad testament to how the automobile completely overtook the public right-of-way in just a few decades from when the original was filmed.
Automobiles have completely taken over the USA
Good point, the camera is looking east, literally to the low, bay side ferry terminal.
Awesome vintage videos, please keep up 👍🏾
Thx! ^^
😮😯 Woa!...Version color beautiful!...😍 Wonderful!...🤩 Năm 1930 thời của ông cố tổ ngoại tôi!...Lúc này ổng đang là trùm mật vụ khét tiếng ổng có ô tô đi, và sở hữu tới 3 khẩu súng 1 điều ko tưởng lúc bấy giờ!...😱
Loved your re do and the notes in the description.
Awesome job! This looks fantastic. I really love the architecture of the time. I wished they had kept more of those buildings.
Is it me or do you sense some road rage while watching some of these clips? I have seen some frustrated drivers for sure. Never dreamed it existed back then, amazing.
Los mejores momentos de mi vida,San Francisco!.
Amazing
Thank you for posting this
Absolutely incredible
That's wild. Overdoing it on the car horns on this and other films of yours that I've been watching.
My Great Great Grandfather was a Stevedore at the Port during this time period, I am grateful to look at see how he and my Great Grandmother lived when they first came to San Francisco via Hawaii and before that Puerto Rico and before that, Spain during the Great Famine of 1904-1906.
Probably the best decade in The USA's history... Look at the people, all were happy!
There were poor and down trodden just the same, you're only seeing a nicer slice of the picture.
Actually, the Depression would've been in full swing when this footage was taken, though it's hard to see signs of it in the video.
@@wasserdagger well not everyone was victim to it.
Everyone dressed so nice and healthy looking
Какая красотища...А сколько припаркованных автомобилей...Всё чисто и великолепно...Хочется попасть в то время...Сердце замирает от увиденного...Привет из России!!!
I can’t believe this was once b&w footage. You did an amazing job!!
I really enjoy these old videos thanks
I remember, even in the 50’s and early 60’s it was rare for women to wear pants, especially downtown to shop.
James--women didn't wear "pants"--they were called "slacks"
lol
THIS CHANNEL IS INCREDIBLE!
looks like everybodys wearing a hat!

A sound loop which is longer than two seconds would be appreciated :)
This is so beautiful and amazing, just amazed how fashion and relevant time and people was back then, now in the modern century everybody changed.
The coloration in this clip is amazing. I love San Francisco ( I’m a S.F. Bay Area native).
Love your films! Makes me wanna go back into the past. Please make some more for los Angeles California .
this picture quality is far better then some of the modern day smartphones.. great job!
there was a move you don't see anymore... stick half your body out the car window to look around the car in front of you! 🤣
0:35 Road rage in 1930s
Some things never change.
This guy went back in time and introduced the world to go pro
Horns and bells in loop are annoying. The purple tint too. Nevertheless, thank you for bringing us this kind of videos.
Unbelievable! I happened to see the name of one of the crossing streets on Market street. The crossing street is Davis street. Just past Henry’s Fashion on the left hand side. Market street and Davis street looks totally different today! Look 👀 what time has done!
My paternal grandmother worked for the founder of Torani syrup, Torre, on Davis St in what I believe was the late 30s- early 40s as his bookkeeper until he passed away from a sudden heart attack. The old produce district was in that zone just north of Market 🙂
This is incredible 👍👍 thank you for sharing it with all of us
On the right at about 3:50 is the California Theatre, San Francisco's first large opulent movie palace. It opened in 1917 & was demolished in 1961, the beginning of the 'Madmen' era.
That was some good footage, I wish if you could find one that drove further down market street to the us mint. I retired from there, just thought it would be nice to see what that area looked like during the 1920s and 30s.
I think cleaning up film is the most Important. Colouring is just a bonus.
Frisco looks amazing
The kid in the white T-shirt at the end of the footage has looks like as if he were from our time.
A time traveler, lol
Thank you. Great restoration and colorization.
Except for all the purple cars!
I wonder if the parade at the end was WW1 vets. This is a great video, thanks very much!
great video back in time
No one taking a dump in the streets.....
Or shooting up on the trains
There were "paddy wagons" that rounded up drunks and derelicts every few days and took them to jail, well into the 1980s.
Or homeless tents all over the sidewalk.
Thanks for being the 200th person to point that out. Is that the best you’ve got?
Zero glory holes, amazing.
I think I saw Richard Kimble trying to blend in with the parade-goers at the end! Someone please alert Gerard!
This is amazing
All the people are well dressed and slim.
Am I the only getting annoyed with the driver in the blue car that keeps tailgating us!! It's like move out of the way! Also - this is a brilliant video and thank you for uploading...
Brilliant quality!
Man, you should see Market Street today, it'll make you shutter...
TIME TRAVEL.......H. G. Wells approved......
And everyone in this video walking or driving is gone now ☹☹☹ beautiful video....times were so different back then
WONDERFUL! CONGRATULATIONS!
These films are amazing, I was wondering where you're getting them? is it from the National Archives or something?
I'm trying to find video footage of both Vallejo CA and Racine WI from the 1930s-60s eras.
Great video. I wanted to see the parade at the end
Love watching this stuff keep it up you're doing a fantastic job
Very beautiful thanks
Imagine all the interesting people that were alive then as well, Orson Welles, James Joyce, WCFields...
Don't have to be an actor to be interesting, everyone has a backstory.
what bout Elvis Presley and Al Capone
@@billipapa7695 Oh yeah Elvis was huge, as soon as he was born in 1935
@@oo0Spyder0oo Oh yeah, my neighbor who gets up at four in the morning to wash her cups, what are you talking about?. Little goody two shoes.
@@irishelk3 you don't know the stories of people, just because they aren't famous you think they had no life? Fuck stick.
Beautiful work NASS. You might want to consider changing the title to "A Trip Up Market Street". (the vehicle was going up Market St, not down... Truly minor thing however.)
The title I see does say "up Market street ". Maybe he corrected it before I watched it.
Who is this person who traveled to every city in every decade and recorded videos on the back of a car?
Very beauty full
I drove my time machine there in 1930 , only lasted a day . It was crazy .
Did you visit the Brothel house?
@@Booze129 ; yes amazing and brought 5 girls back with me. no need to go back
