Happy Birthday to Elisha Graves Otis: A short compilation of 3 manually controlled Otis Elevators

Today marks the 213th birthday of Elisha Graves Otis, who invented the first elevator safety break in 1853! What a perfect way to honor this American industrialist birthday is a short little clip unveiling a few manually controlled old historic Otis elevators that I have found. I have found three of them in a row this year, making this a perfect video special for you to enjoy!
NOTE: Please excuse the typo from inside the text at the very beginning of this video. I was rushed trying to get this up ASAP. Thanks for your understanding, and I hope you enjoyed the rest of the video.

Great video! I am crazy about the old manually controlled elevators and outstanding you got to run all 3! I tried to get a job as an elevator operator at several times, but without success.
