а почему на улице такое плохое освещение, что в 60 в америке плохо с электричеством или лампочки экономят?)
I was thinking it's amazing how different the 1960 Ford going by is from the 1956 Ford station wagon parked along the street. Just 5 years and what a difference. Great video as usual!
Very enjoyable indeed. Liked and shared.
May you find an old reel from Palm Springs? Thank you!!!!
Beautiful and well done those 60s and the cars are amazing " I bet the food even tasted better in the 60s Wow.
60 years later this film sparkles with new life. The ambiance of the tires splashing on the wet streets was spot on. I miss the often exotic hues of neon lights.
thank you very much
a
I think the sound was added later. It’s not the original sound I don’t think.
@@vmtz2001 that is correct NASS adds all the sounds.
It's so clear; it's like being in a time machine into the 60s. Wonderful!
Cars of that era are works of art. Sculptures which transport.
I am just simply fantasizing
Beautiful. Love the sweet low rumble of the V8 engines too.
Golden age of cars. No question
Agreed. 90% of cars nowadays all look the same and have no visual appeal. The ones that do, they just don’t have that same flair as ones from the 50s/60s. Back then, even cars the average joes were driving had class.
@@syberpunk Cars havent changed how they look in like the last 20 years, same thing with music, fashion, haircuts. It all kinda remained the same after like the year 2000
Watching that upstairs apartment window, people living there life. Imagine recognizing that its your house and seeing yourself from that perspective from all those years ago and not knowing that this footage ever existed.
I love how everything was lit up in neon and incandescent back then. No LEDs to make you go blind.
I agree. LED has no mood and is way too bright.
Agreed 💯
I was a child in San Francisco at the time of this footage (ca. 1962). What a strange and wistful feeling watching it. Very nicely done! Thank you for posting it.
I'm beginning to think NASS is a time traveler. He just brings his high quality camera back to the past, then shares it with all of us.
^^
The streets I walked. The sights I saw. But most of all, the people I have loved and lost.
Look how clean the sidewalks and streets looked. I wonder how many of these businesses have survived the decades.
Bimbo's 365 survived, it's a night club.
Most are gone as these businesses are families and people not giant corporations. People die the business dies. Sad.
Amazing video! It’s so fascinating to see those beautiful cars, the great scenery and the way the pedestrians used to dress. Its like going into a Time Machine back to the simpler times when people were thinking bright for the future. Always fun to watch these, would love to see more.
thank you very much
tbh with the first two world wars, *anything* would be a brighter future, even what we have now in reality.
Your footage restoration feels like being on the set of American graffiti, shot in Modesto and Santa Clara etc.
Wonderful.
Merci.
I was just about to say this. And I live in Modesto so this is a treat to watch!
@@vschxhxl I'm down south near Monterey, although I grew up in France, always have been fascinated by that era.
Have you watched some of the behind the scenes of the movie? Lots of great footage from your town and area.
thank you very much
@@SandrinesVoxServices I had no idea there was a behind the scenes of that movie. Definitely need to check it out! Thanks!
@@vschxhxl ua-cam.com/video/j97UZh3dzoQ/v-deo.html
Anyone else feeling melancholy? It all whips by so fast, doesn't it? As a kid, I loved making faces in the hubcaps of cars. Rememba'?
I remember you doing that.
I often wish I was dead. I’m 10,000 percent convinced that this isn’t my first go-round the earth or this life. I’m woefully nostalgic for things I never experienced and it pains me in a major way.. to know that I’ll never be able to see it for myself… I guess this is the next best thing.
All of those awesome cars! Wish I had a time machine...
Yes I would like to travel back in time too. However they had a lot of diseases back then that are eradicated. You'd have to get vaccination boosters and a smallpox vaccine.
@@goombabear 🤣🤣🤣
Whenever I watch these it makes me think of my dad. He was born in 54 so just to think that he was only 10 or maybe early teens in this time of the video is amazing to think about
I was born in 1954 in Los Angeles, and I will say this. Life was much simpler in the 1960s compared to today. That’s just a fact.
Amazing work on the sound design and colorization. Watching this really feels like looking through a wormhole back into time.
The colorization is very impressive.
Back to my childhood before high school in L.A. The days were warm and nights were cool. We'd play ball at the park until the lights went on and then went home to dinner, homework, and TV till 11 p.m. Life was much simpler then except for everything we'd see and read in the news about Vietnam, from 1964 through 1973.
Don't forget all the NASA launches, Vietnam protests and Nixon.
Your videos are like my escape to a softer kinder time! It’s my time out in this cold world with many things that are just too fast too cold and unforgiving! Thank you so much for the time and effort you put in I love what you do and the kindness you show in sharing your wonderful work! ❤
thank you very much
It’s human nature to think of the good moments of the past even though there are periods of misery in every decade of history.
American Graffiti vibes. California must've been a lovely place back then.
It was
Thanks again NASS. I got to remember Grotto #9 again. I grew up in the 1960's In san jose Calif. Parents to me to Grotto #9 once a month to have Fish and chips upstairs. White table cloths and warm Parisian sour dough bread w real butter. It was amazing. The car show was fabulous with those 50-60's cars! Cars were made of heavy metal those days. 😊You rock!
thank you very much
Beautiful and fascinating! Thank you for all your work.
Thank you very much for your support, it really means a lot to us, God bless you
This turned into a little homage to San Francisco's Sicilian fishermen community and all the great restaurants they opened! ❤
4:40 - Sabella's Capri Room at Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco. Established in 1927, the restaurant was owned by Luciano Sabella, one of many Sicilian immigrants who dominated the city's fishing industry at that time. He and his son Antone opened a fish store in Jefferson Street and then established the restaurant on the historic Wharf. Four generations of the Sabella family ran the restaurant in the ensuing decades as well as the Capri Room, a supper club which flourished in the 1950s. Sadly A. Sabellas, which had a magnificent view of the Bay, closed in 2007 when family members decided they didn't want to continue in the restaurant business.
5:55 - Burp Hollow at 473 Broadway was infamous for the bad pay to the performers, tiny stage, watered-down booze and unsavoury club owner - a wheel chair-bound former Mafioso named Millio Militti. Burp Hollow operated between 1956 and 1966.
Amazing footage.. and to think those people walking by that looked right at the camera, wouldn't have thought they'd be on a profile called UA-cam in 2023.
They gawked at us, died, and now we get to gawk back.
Revenge is fun! 😃👍
I understand it was INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT to "film" things at night back then and this is amazing footage !
thank you very much
I grew up in the 60's and I really miss the simpler times
Love all these classics and the era of the 60’s. Owned a 1963 Chevy Impala, we were cruising these streets in the 80’s, a much different scene then, but the unforgettable vibe of cruising classics was still alive. The good ol’ days. 🤎
Mind blowing clearness and clarity of the film. Great job adding the sound!
I'm gonna say 1962 or so. The absolute perfect moment- the most tailfins
That's about what I was thinking.... probably not beyond 1963.
I didn’t see anything newer than the Impalas, which looked like ‘62s to me.
Yellow registration plates on cars - so it's not 1963, most likely 1961-1962
@@markmmv I was just hedging my bets :)
I’m drooling looking at all the classic cars parked and driving by! 👌I wish I could travel to that era..buy up a bunch of cars and bring it back to this time.
Go back and buy a bunch and put them in a storage unit for your future self.
Love those neon signs. Hard to believe they were once everywhere in cities.
Can you imagine someone filming many of the streets of California today? There wouldn't be much nostalgia 50 or 60 years from now for those earlier days.
Sad option of today's youth. Of course there would be nostalgia.
@@richardjosephnovak I am certain there would be nostalgia for all the homeless tents and cardboard enclosures that were filmed on the streets of California today.
@@jimfesta8981 My dad grew up during the 1930s Great Depression. He recalled the great number of people and families that lost their homes and livelihood and became homeless. He remembered hearing about people jumping off buildings and bridges to end thier life was commonplace and almost a daily occurrence. I remember seeing homeless in the open wooden boxcars as trains passed in the 1960s. We today are coming out of the Great Recession where million lost there income and homes. With the added yearly influx of cheap labor it has been difficult for many to reenter the workforce creating a homeless epidemic today. Homelessness is a human condition. Always has been always will be.
Those crisis are all part of our memories and lives. But all the while beautiful things happen everyday. New music, fashion and entertainment. The smell of flowers, food cooking and freshly cut grass. Dancing, dating, and falling in love. That is nostalgia.
If kids are exposed to you maybe you can point out the flowers blooming on the hill, or the smell of the neighbor cutting the grass or share the latest food trend with them and reinforce the good things in life instead shiting on their memories. Misery is a human condition but there is a healing process. Just maybe you can help some kid from jumping off a bridge by pointing out how nice the warm sunrise feels on thier face instead of telling them the end is near due to global warming. And in the meantime take public transportation down to skid row and see what you can do to help.
@@richardjosephnovak Good lord, I didn't expect a treatise on life. We're talking about streets in cities in California and their attractiveness as compared to 60 years ago and today.
You'd get your camera stolen...
Unbelievably beautiful work. San Francisco.
Absolutely marvelous. An ode to the cars and the nightlife of the era. Thanks!
Almost looks like B roll for American Graffiti. Cool vid!
That's exactly what I thought. All you need is Wolfman Jack and the golden hits soundtrack.
@@richfarmer3478 Yep!!
looks very beautiful
Amazing, beautiful night shots. So many beautiful old cars, the wonderful neon signs and lighting and well dressed people going about.
Nass, Another fabulous upload my friend. It's amazing how Retro the cars here look! ! And I was born in the later 1960's! Time goes fast. LOL.
"...how Retro the cars here look..." Yes, they are Retro, but I have to say this film looks to have been made in the late 1950's or very early 1960's. I did see an early Ford Falcon which first came out in 1959, but every parked or moving car in the first few minutes is from the 1950's.
@@md9680 Yes, I agree with you. This video is a bit before I was born . I was born in 1965.
thank you very much
wow some of the neon signs in sf are still there today 😍
As a classic car lover and historian, this video is golden, especially in color. Looks like it was 1962.TY Nass.👍
This is super amazing 👏 Colours are fantastic!
thank you very much
So many fantastic colors !
The couple outside what looks like a shop entrance at about 3.20, notice the camera filming from across the road, even though it's quite dark. they look a little concerned about who is filming, what they're filming and why. A beautiful little slice of life from 60 odd years ago.
Just Fantastic .I love watching it in slow motion and imagine what things were like back then ..amazing quality ..thank you .
So beautiful. California still had its quaint places.
Those neon lights from the 60's and 70's have given an amazing atmosphere to the environment.👏🏻👏🏻
50's and 60'S
wonderful work!! amazing!
thank you very much
Amazing. It’s like traveling back in time. Love this!
thank you very much
Looks like around 1962. This is the real "American Graffiti!"
The quality with the color is unbelievable. Thanks for doing what you do.
You know you're getting old when you rode around in half of the cars here when you were a kid! LOL I could be in this video I'm looking hahaha
I love California!
Awesome as always. 😊
thank you very much
Love this! Wish you could do one of the 1970's with the muscle cars. Yeah.
A lot better than California today
I hope the guy walking by at the 1:07 mark gets to see this.
The newest cars I noticed were 1962 models. I loved that 56 Buick parked at the curb!
My love of SF now has turned into a cesspool. I miss my first city love.
I last went in 2005 before it turned into pooh corner .. maybe that was the last time it was beautiful
This is one of your better videos. The quality is incredible. And the time period is one of the best. I'd give more money than I actually have to be able to step into that video and be in San Francisco circa 1960-61.
Simply amazing ......this looks totally modern......like a time machine thank you so much for this NASS
OMG magickal time travel video - amazing cars - I just want to step thru that portal and go back to that time
This videos quality is amazing.... Looks like it was made yesterday. What I wouldn't do to own a few of those classic cars. Such a much more simpler time.... No cell phones, computers, probably not very many tvs. Back in time when everything was made in the USA! Those neon lights are awesome!
This brings me back to my childhood here in San Francisco. I was 11 or 12 years old then, riding my bike on the streets, watching those cars really bring me back, and the quality of the film is great why if I can project a full size image it would almost seem as if I was there.
It would be so amazing to go back in time and bring some of that atmosphere to present day. The automobiles, the businesses, people’s character and the ways of that era. I know there turbulent times then as well but how wonderful it would be to recapture some of the past that made the 50’s & 60”s great
I just knew that if the 1930s footage was in HD, this would be ultra HD. It looks amazing. It’s how the time would have looked through normal eyesight, which is something you used to never get from footage.
1940s-1960s California seems like an idyllic society.
It was, that's why the population exploded.
magnificas imagens de uma magnifica era.
C'est fou, on croirait que cela a été filmé aujourd'hui
Beautiful time era..those cars. Awesome.
Wonderful footage! so clear - I love those classic cars!
please show more of the 60s and 70s
Almost the entire second half is San Francisco. GREAT films... thank you!
thank you very much
San Fransisco at its peak
Great video... a tiny bit of constructive criticism though. The clanging trolley bell every time a streetcar passes is a bit overplayed. The bell would normally be used to warn drivers when stopping to let passengers on and off... not ringing constantly. The PCC streetcars did make a distinctive sound when in motion though and I'm sure there's an audio file available somewhere which can replicate it.
True, in LA, streetcar motormen used the gong generally as a warning device, not constantly. But LA had a rule where motormen had to sound the gong twice when leaving a stop. By the way, was that the P line in this video? It galls me that LA trashed their wonderful streetcar system and replaced it with buses.
Now in San Francisco, things are a bit different. Some MUNI streetcar motormen are somewhat heavy handed with the gong. Although I must say, I dislike the 'clatter gongs' that the MUNI has on the PCC cars. It sounds like a police vehicle or ambulance in England. I prefer 'single strike' gongs. And in the case of the San Francisco cable cars, many gripmen love to play with the bells constantly.They even have bell ringing contests.
Ever see this great film?

Like going back childhood years
I was born in 1957. Neon lights and tail fins were everywhere.
Thanks for this time capsule.
Stockton, California, USA on 197th decade in color [60fps, Remastered]
Very realistic video! Original quality!
Wonderful, Thanks!
Seems like 100 lifetimes ago. Today sucks bigtime.
Love that view with people in the lit apartment windows- like an Edward Hopper painting.
The 60fps doing good job the videos it seemed in modern time really
I can't wrap my head around the weather. Nobody worries about cold weather. Ever.
Nice start with the Los Angeles PCC streetcar at 0:10. Streetcar service came to an end in L.A. in March 1963. Is that a 1955 Mercury in the foreground?
Yep, a ‘55.
@@sfeddie1 Thanks!
Amazing work!
so cool, where do these tapes come from ? its just like being there !!! I remember vaguely scenes like this , as I was a very young child, brings back lost memories !! thank u.
Keep it Up 💯 Agma 💪
All those functional and beautiful cars
Thanks for the video.
Absolutely fantastic work! Thank you!
@5:42
I’m gonna need to avoid a rabbit hole…. But 365 Bimbos is still there.. and seems a popular filming location in days of yore..
Literally not ONE ugly car. Holy smokes, what a time to be alive.
Went to a lot of those places in SF in the 70's....Long time ago!!!
Mmmm, I can just smell all those leaded exhaust fumes. Seriously though, great video!
Fun fact: You are seeing Once upon a time in Hollywood, for real, through video images.
Alioto's! Wow, I didn't expect a place I've actually eaten (recently too, before they closed).
Fascinating and interesting...thanks ...👍
5:54 Enricos! We used to go to Enricos all the time back in the day.
Thanks ! Amazing clarity it's the closest thing to a Time Machine. I wonder about the lives of these people as they go on oblivious to the camera.
Does anybody notice that sketchy guy at 4:06 who stands there then disappears from the camera , reappearing a few seconds later and weirdly enters that Buick Skylark like he’s trying to steal something ?
imagine the beetles are the newest thing Kennedy is president and there is no iPhone after filming you just get in your car and go no distractions just you and the calm quiet of self reliance, but also community of everyone experiencing the same thing no social media to divide people, and only the serene feeling of nostalgia weirdly familiar reminds me of my childhood.
