Thanks for sharing. I went up to the Arch in 1985, and I miss it. Was very scary, but so memorable.
The wax museum on the bottom, the souvenier shop, the little film room which shows the building of the Arch. Even the tiny elevator with, I believe, 5 circular plastic seats! hahahaha...
We lost that year to the Royals! Aaarrggghhh!!!!!!
very interesting piece of footage, that was 4 years before I was even born.... just wish it was long and showed move of the zoo, thanks for posting it
Thanks for the video! Come see mine! Do you live in St. Louis now?

How did you get on the field? If that was a tour, they did not allow that past the 1970s.

some interesting things to note: the complete lack of trees around the arch, the lack of tall buildings around the old court house, the trolley car.
very interesting timecapsule piece.
