Does that mean good or bad?

Cool. One of the cars said 'Molina will never be 100 again, and neither will I'

I live in Sacramento California. It’s pretty hard to identify some of these films in the best of conditions but this one actually says on the can that it was East Moline. There were some other scenes included in this film and maybe that’s what they’re referring to. Thanks for the information and thank you for watching.

[@Just.D]

Was this in East Moline or Moline?

[@OfficeofImageArchaeology]

According to what was written on the film can it is East Moline but I have heard From someone else that it may just be Moline.

[@OfficeofImageArchaeology]

Actually the parade was in Moline and the other scenes were in East Moline. I’m sorry it’s been a while since I posted this film.
