O Pramateftis. While this video clip is more the life and times of Heraklion, Crete, in 1961, it does tell a story that Mountaki so eloquently tells in this story of the poor peddler. You will see peddlers selling their wares at or near the Agora. I just love the shot of the traffic cop.
Anthony Sooklaris so keenly captures the moment in this amazing footage of what life was like. Make sure to catch the traffic cop. It's a classic solution to a then "new" problem of how to deal with more cars on streets that were once more populated by horses and donkeys, than by motor vehicles.
It was a more simple life, and it will no doubt remind us of fond memories of this most precious past.
You'll see landmarks like Eleftherioiu Square and the Morosini fountain.
If you recognize people, or landmarks, or have some memories to share, I would sure love it if you posted a comment and tell us about your experiences during this early 1960's era.
Enjoy!
