Ehwn did they develop sound tracks for film cameras? 1950's?

I'm not sure when the technology came out, but our home movies into the 1970s were all silent. I have an edited version of this with music on YouTube under "Lake George 1939"

Great. In the early part, that is the Top of The World Golf Course on the east side of Lake George just north of the village. It is still there, still a golf course.
