Oldest Known Moving Images of Japan captured in Kodacolor - 1929

This film contains the oldest known moving images of Japan in full Kodacolor (October 3-13, 1929). The images were taken by passenger Dr. Ormond Wall of Hawaii aboard Matson Navigation's "SS Malolo" during the ship's epic, 90-day, 24,000 mile journey around the Pacific... more commonly known today as "The Millionaires Cruise of 1929" (for more information, see: www.ssmalolo.com)
Ormond Wall was a dentist in Honolulu and the patent holder for the automated windshield wiper system for automobiles. The added income generated allowed him to construct a large summer home along the windward side of Oahu during the height of the Depression.. Locals knew it as "Pahonu", although most Ameriicans knew it best at "Robin's Nest" on the television series "Magnum P.I." starring Tom Selleck.

I was starting to think it looked a bit green when a vibrant blue pickup drove through. This is amazing to see. So many Shinto Torii. Some of them looked partially submerged even then.

Interesting to see the Great Torii Gate not in bright orange/red as it is presently.
