- Take a look at this Saint John tourism video from the 1920's!
A few additional tidbits about the video:
-It was shot in the summer of 1925. The Cenotaph in King's Square had just been dedicated (June 1925 - wreaths still on cenotaph) and the Admiral Beatty Hotel just opened.
-The man in the straw hat is Walter Golding, manager of the Imperial Theatre plus a member of the Saint John Tourist Association.
-The film was first shown at the Imperial Theatre in 1926.
-The original film was 15 minutes long, but only 7 minutes of the film could be restored.
-The original film was silent. The music was added by EH Wright.
A big thanks to EH Wright for this historic gem - both the video and the background info! #SaintAwesome
