Old Vintage color Film from New York City in the 1945 shot by Edward Theiss. Edward Theiss is my grandfather whom passed on some of his old films to the Theiss family. I never knew my grandfather because he passed away when I was a newborn, but I feel connected with him through his photography. This one is my favorites.....
Dated around Sept. 17th 1945....

I always loved the 1940's when people used to dress up and everyone wore a hat.the fashions were so classy not like now with these men going around looking like bums and some women looking like prostitutes. its sooo sad I too wish I were around then

In the US, color film had been available since 1935 when Kodachrome was introduced.

Wait a sec, how is this in color? I don't even remember there being color in the 60's. Can someone elaborate?

This is from before my time but I find this film rather touching. Thank you for posting your grandfather's priceless footage.

How could anyone dislike this. What a wonderful look at a much sweeter time and in ways more innocent time. Thanks for sharing this great slice of Americana.

Yes, my grandfather was ahead of his time. He had one of the first ever color film cameras. This could be the first color film of NYC....?
