If you were taking a sea cruise from the Eastern Seaboard to the West Coast via the Panama Canal, this might be the film you'd see before disembarking in San Diego, Los Angeles, or San Francisco.

An exquisite travel film documenting the magnificent landscape and locales of pre-WWII California, this film showcases classic old school California, from the Spanish-styled haciendas overlooking the swelling Pacific to the vast interior of bountiful valleys and awesome peaks.

Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you California of the early 1930's.

  • Yes! Spain ruled California! That's why Cal has community property laws, and so forth! All this stuff about California being part of Mexico is just hateful "Aztlan" propaganda from "La Raza Unida", the Mechia Movement, and other hate groups.

  • 80% of these landscapes are GONE. depressing.

  • "It's streets are metropolitan and teemed with traffic"

    LOL, that was a good thing back then!

    California:

    a utopia before overpopulation turned it to shit!

  • He mention OLD SPAIN!! NOT MEXICO that now claims California.

  • An excellent peek back in time.

  • feh

  • 1:45 is Pershing Square in downtown Los Angeles. That park no longer is like that, its now open typical suburban grass with few benches and few Modern architecture (ugly) structures.

  • The building at 1:52 is in Culver City, not Hollywood like the narrator says. Amazingly, it still looks exactly like that today. It was used as the fascade for Terra in "Gone With The Wind."

  • Times ain't like it used to be in Los Angeles. San Francisco still kicks ass like it always has though.

  • Wow I live here! What year was this filmed?
