I sent this video to a classmate who smelled awful and needed to learn to take a bath!!! He got so pissed xD

This is when Sesame Street was an amazing show!!! It is nothing like this today!!

@Jayke1981 Roberts Blossom was also Doc in the film Escape from Alcatraz with Clint Eastwood. He had real talent. Sorry he is gone :(

These were originally OTIS elevators. The floor indicator at the top appears to be an otis fixture. These were modernized by Dover Elevator which is sad and unfortunate. I never was a fan of Dover Elevators. These otherwise are a nice find. Show more of the floorplate as well if you make another ...

These are unique and amazing and are slowly disappearing. I very glad you posted this video from one elevator buff to another. I used to love playing with these older elevators. These are made in America when things were made to last. They will never make something even close to these anymore. Ke...

I have not seen these pop out buttons since my childhood. They also had a lever on the independent service panel that could be used to open and close the doors. It was really cool. This thing could be run by an operator or without. I remember there were elevators like this at the Museum of Natura...

The old ones were much cooler than these. I remember the old ones and they were much faster!

I am pleased with your work on this video. I wanted to tell you I approved your request and saw the video. This is a nice capture of a late era Otis Autotronic Elevator. I see you took the elevator up to the revolving resturant on the top floor.

@suzzex I also am a 30 year resident of Washington DC who was born in the District of Columbia in 1981. I know my town very well and we do have some amazing buildings and elevators too.

I don't want to be the one who gets the electric bill for these behomoths!!

@MisterJigs In 1992, the US Mint started making 90% silver proof half dollars, quarters, and dimes as part of their silver proof sets. Silver Proof coins are not put into circulation and they have extra detail and a mirrorlike finish. If he found a mint proof, then he is telling the truth. Busine...

These have indeed been ruined. :(

These elevators are American Made and were made when elevators were built to last. These things can last a long time the hard part is finding suitable original replacement parts if something goes wrong. These are indeed real treasures and thanks for posting this. I am genuinely impressed!!! Keep ...

These elevators are extremely rare to have these original fixtures. You really captured some really amazing elevators. These new ones suck. The stuff your filming was made when things were made to last. You have done an outstanding job and keep up the good work!! I am very impressed with this fil...

Good luck with your adventure. Silver coins began to get hoarded when it was pulled from our money in 1965 and 1970. You were lucky to find those 2. Not bad though,

This when TV was TV!

This was a good effort. Is there anyway you could reshoot this video a little more clearly? The video is really blurry and it is hard to appreciate such a fine elevator with the image being partialy obscured. Otherwise, nice find! These elevators are becoming rarer and rarer esepcially when the c...

I used to play on the elevators. I think these are not old enough to be from the 1930's. I am guessing more the 1940's. The Call buttons appear to be from the early 1950's but the interior buttons are much older. Its a really fine piece of machinery. This was an excellent find! Nice job!
