    Thank you for posting these pictures, young Jamaicans need to see what happened before they arrived here and the journey our ancestors traveled to get us here.

      Yeah, working manual jobs and not being in positions of authority or owning any assets.

      That's true and also educational for those with common interest of their country future.
      Rather than trying to destroy the older ones' hard work.

    If only there was a way to make technicolor possible to see the footage in its true historical glory days of those times. I know the technology was available then hence the ‘if only’. Nevertheless what an incredible footage.
