Seems like it was a nice place

Որ խնդրեմ կասեք ով է երգում?

Any idea where this is? It does not resemble any current city scape that I can think of.

In 1929 my mother would have been 7 years old, living with her sister above her father's delicatessen in a Jewish neighborhood, near the downtown and Lake Erie. 20 years later she would meet my Dad, whose family lived nearby, but the two didn't know each other. By 1929, my Dad had just begun attending Ohio State University, located in Columbus, Ohio. He traveled there by train. He was 10 years older than my mother. My mother talked about how there were still ice men, when she was young, who delivered blocks of ice to people's homes, and businesses. Everyone knew the names of the ice men, and postmen, and all the shopkeepers. Horse drawn wagons for delivering the ice, were still in use in the 1920s.

If my mom was in the crowd, she would have been 17 years old, just shy of her 18th birthday. And my dad would have turned 22 earlier that summer. Cleveland was awesome at the time!

Chaplinfilms uit de tijd…onzin vind ik. Niet alleen kan men door de afbeeldingen meedenken, ook spreekt het mij aan dat Charlie-een tenger persoon-het op een slimme manier van stoer uitziende personen bij een vechtpartij weet te winnen. Ik hoop dat zijn films een come back maken.

De Chaplinfims stonden bekend als de zgn ,,stomme films,, ,ze kunnen toch spreken. Door aandachtig het beeld te volgen is de bedoeling te doorzien.

Note that almost all the people--men and women--wore hats. Real hats, not baseball caps.

So this motorcycle cop pulls over a band which does not miss a beat while playing a march....

Back before the ugly, banal pox of suburbia and the shopping malls destroyed a very vibrant downtown!

That's pretty much the way Euclid Avenue looked when I was growing up in Cleveland during the 1950s. Cleveland was a major U.S. city then with a population of almost a million, and downtown was still a bustling commercial center with big department stores - May Company, Higbee's, Bailey's, Halle's, and Sterling Lindners. And the grand old theaters were still open: Allen, State and Palace. And then there was the Roxy Burlesque Theater on Ninth Street and Short Vincent with its bars and dubious reputation.

If you look close enough, you can spot George himself, of George's Kitchen!!!

Wow, cell phones must not have had very good cameras back then, they have improved a lot since then!

I look at all of those people and I realize that every single one of them is dead! Might be one or two still around, but doubtful.

Charlie Chaplin Great legend 😊 First Comedy Films Actor۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔

Legal ver o FILME.CHAPLIN todo e não é comprido. Isto é um porre coletivo, por garrafas jogadas no poço. Tem uma cena que CARLITOS , o.file de borboleta,sai do provador e faz pose de Apollo. EDNA sempre elegante....com CHARLIE CHAPLIN...

Cleveland was indeed a grand city!

A big thank you for presenting what was, apparently, a Fox Newsreel film of Cleveland in the late summer of 1929 prior to the Wall Street Crash. It's nice to see a parade honoring the first National Air Races at Hopkins Airport back then. With a very large crowd lining Euclid Avenue and Public Square. The names of Davis, as in Sterling, Lindner-Davis department store, Mills Restaurant, and Cleveland College might bring back memories to some old enough to remember. However, I believe that Sterling, Lindner-Davis was on Euclid Avenue and East 12th Street when I was younger prior to its 1968 closure. Maybe, the Davis sign was referring to Davis Bakery, not sure.

Genius sums it all up........

Almost everyone wore a hat!

Little did they all know what would be heading their way come later in the fall.

Incredibly good video and audio for that period!

I see my great-grandfather’s store, next to the Davis sign and the Windmill restaurant.

Not one person, not even a hobo is dressed like a slob. Oh how Americans have slipped slides away.

At around 2:30, the band is playing a German March-'Alta Kameraden'. Interesting.

The craftsmanship on those downtown buildings was unbelievable. My grandfather came to Cleveland to do the iron work on the Stadium and the Lorain-Carnegie bridge in the 30’s. It amazes me that all of that work was done back then without power tools or computers. Those workers were true craftsmen. I wonder if those workers had any idea those bridges and buildings would still be standing almost a hundred years later.

That was pretty cool, sadly Cleveland kinda declined since then.

ещё мне нравится 1000 девятьсотые годы тем что люди лёгкие даже толстые люди очень лёгкие и хорошо двигаются ихние тела не переполнены добавками такими как Е

что мне нравится в Чарли Чаплине, то что он не придает особенное значение ни одежде ,ни какому-то статусу человеческому, вообще ни какому месту.

बीभत्स माकड चेष्टा!

Вот что я вижу в этой картине в Чарли Чаплине ,я вижу в Чарли Чаплине новое время, я вижу в Чарли Чаплине возвращение утраченного времени или как бы сказать возвращение к счастливому времени которого не было или как бы это сказать возвращение к времени в лучшем качестве,то время которое прошло ,но оно в лучшем качестве ,оно в самом самом лучшем качестве в самом превосходном качестве в самом удивительном качестве в самом невероятном качестве в самом восхитительным качестве самом самом самом самом ну очень очень очень .That's what I see in this picture in Charlie Chaplin, I see in Charlie Chaplin a new time, I see in Charlie Chaplin the return of lost time, or how to say a return to a happy time that was not, or how to say a return to time in the best quality, the time that has passed, but it is in the best quality, it is in the best quality in the most excellent quality in the most amazing quality in the most incredible quality in the most amazing quality the very very very very very very very very.

One of my favorite Chaplin classics. Great supporting cast.

Unico....😁

I like it

Damn… that’s the year my grandpa was born

Then a few months later the big crash

Yo voy ha pasa y me siento un rato aya con el seño

Y con que si no hay las mujer no puso nada y con ella no se puede corta

Great video. I grew up in Shaker Hts. My dad would have been about 12 in 1929. I recognize some of the buildings. Is the one marked “Davis” the Sterling Linder Davis department store? One building, the arched one, looks like Old Arcade. Look at all those lovely 20’s flapper girls and guys in their straw bowler hats! If they only knew what’s coming.....Depression, WWll, Vietnam, assasinations, World Trade Center, covid.

Honestly, I always imagine the past parades (or the past in general) sounding so much different from today. Here? Besides the whistling and the occasional car horn, this doesn’t sound too different from what a normal bustling parade would sound like today tbh. Even the music sounds pretty much unchanged.

Wow 😳

It looks like a haberdashery was a good business to get into at the time.

That’s friggin awesome I live here that’s very cool and I want that truck that was hauling the band

The open bus--built by White Trucks of Cleveland--the longest running auto manufacturer in the US--they are now Volvo trucks--my dad was a contractor and his '62 White dump truck is still running

Were there scares of sun poisoning back then? Is the same hat company now selling masks?

So many such scenes 3.54 amazingly done

Now available in colorized form: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIqQi5iQhdSqfKs

Many, many hats.
