My own Dad was a tourist from NY back in those days (He was in his mid-30's at the time!) I still have a lot of photos of his trips to FL during the Depression years. He retired and moved our family to South Florida in 1959.

Is there any way you could share them with us and I'll make it into a movie?

Fun video! They do take some liberties with what is in Lakeland… Interesting, while they show Publix (Southgate Plaza location?), they’re the biggest growth story from Lakeland; and Eckerd Drugs was sold off years ago… There’s still plenty of “old Florida” in Lakeland…

That was really amazing and it's history. The video was pretty clear on the most part.

Im pretty sure this gang of honeys are the gal-pals of members of the West palm Beach F.D. Early "cheese cake".

Wow! That was a nice 90 yard run, no spiking the ball back then- but you can bet that would happen today!

So sad that Lakeland is no longer the place it once was. Almost every business shown in this film is long gone. Companies have either moved to other places or went out of business. Lakeland has become overdeveloped and a traffic nightmare. Too many houses being built, too many warehouses and the beauty of this town is rapidly vanishing.

@@cheesebandit8873 Yes it is. But I live in Lakeland. It was a sprawling laidback town back 45 years ago. Now it’s a sprawling, overcrowded, & has lost much of its charm and friendliness. I guess they call it progress 😢

Agree, especially that “Lawton Chiles Headquarters” shown around the two minute mark; yeah, I voted for the “old he coon” back in the day!
