The quality of the images is amazing. My grandfather owned a Bell and Howell Super 8 camera and projector... I was named as custodian of all the cans of film. Around 25 years ago, I had the entire set of reels transferred to DVD. The quality of the film is nowhere near as good as what we see here. I venture that the original film stock must have been of superior quality and was stored with careful sequestration from environmental damage. Thank you for sharing this delightful gem.

Kodachrome Type A (for indoor use) was extremely slow (ASA 16). Notice the harsh shadows on the wall from the tungsten floodlights required to get exposures this clean. Whoever was behind the camera knew what they were doing. I suspect the outdoor scenes at the end were shot with a color-correction filter (Type A was not designed for sunlight). Overall, this reel is a testament to Kodachrome's long-term stability.

It might be the great depression but these people had money to afford to film in color.

I believe it is in Rhoad Island somewhere; no address came with the films when I bought them

Hmm, if Rhode Island, maybe the Newport area? A lot of wealthy people lived in that area.

NOT the typical American family. They were very fortunate. I'll bet those families that had so much less than this were even "Richer" in their faith and beliefs. May God bless all the souls on this film and everyone else who lived through these difficult times. 🎄🎅🙏

You seem jealous that this family was well off thus less rich in their faith and beliefs. Demoncrats are like this. YOU LOST! Thanks to GOD.

@ My grandfather did just fine during the depression. He used to say the poor people “brought it on themselves” if they ended up losing their job and living under a bridge. Grandpa was a deeply devout Christian.

I'm curious about the family. Are any still alive? They seem to be quite comfortable for the era, so definitely at least upper middle class. I'm guessing that only upper class people had the kind of money required to purchase an 8mm camera and film.
