New York Worlds Fair 1964 Unisphere 1960s Vintage Films DVD

Description: Please read & note: This is a Rights holding DVD created & produced by me and is not factory made or sealed. I strive to produce the best DVD's possible from the sometimes VERY old Public Domain material. Films that are public domain are un preserved and not professionally re-mastered. I re-master all of my films myself to the best possible quality achievable. My DVDs are not the quality of todays Modern DVDs or Bluray discs. If you are looking for this kind of quality then these discs are not for you. All pictures are actual screen captures from the DVDs. Please note this when purchasing, but also know that all of the films are very watchable. To keep my prices as low as possible all my DVDs are delivered in plain paper DVD sleeves and the DVDs title will be labeled on the back of the DVD envelope. (See picture) All of my DVD's come with a menu for easy film selection.   Total runtime of this DVD is 109 minutes.   Item specifics are:Film: 1 "The Unisphere: Biggest World on Earth" (1964) COLOR Runtime 14 minutesThis film is a wonderful tribute to a perhaps overlooked monument from the enthusiastic early 1960's. You rarely see the unisphere unless it is the backdrop for an action film or science fiction. A pity. This film is a fascinating look at the conceptualization and creation of a truly fine piece of sculpture. Film Release Date: 1964 Film Entered the Public Domain: 1993 Film: 2 "To The Fair" (1965) COLOR Runtime 26 minutes This film follows various groups of people during their day at the fair: a family of five; a couple from India; two women schoolteachers; three Boy Scouts who get separated from their troupe; a pair of young women pursued by two very ardent male suitors. A must-see not only for those interested in this fair, but also for fans of Disneyland. Several Disney attractions (the Carousel of Progress, Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, It's a Small World, even those dinosaurs you see from the railroad) were developed and built for the fair. Film Release Date: 1965 Film Entered the Public Domain: 1994   Film 3: World's Fair Report with Lowell Thomas (1961) B&W runtime 26 minutes  About New York World's Fair under construction Aerial of Unisphere Shea Stadium under construction Models of future pavilions to be built Robert Moses and John F. Kennedy speaking at Fair siteFilm Release Date: 1961Film Entered the Public Domain: 1990 Film 4: World's Fair Report with Lowell Thomas (1964) COLOR Runtime 13 minutes Even though it looked like the Worlds Fair was about 65% completed, Lowell Thomas and company still went down there and made a great color overview of what you could expect while you were there. Tons and tons of stuff going on, from science, to geography, to, yes, religion all have a spot at the fair, it's a great preview.Film Release Date: 1964Film Entered the Public Domain: 1993 Film: 5 1964 New York World's Fair Report (1961) B&W Runtime 26 minutes An overview to transform Flushing Meadow into the World's Fair of 1965 is showcased here. Quite interesting background information on how much time is needed to put one of these on. With Robert Moses and many others.Film Release Date: 1961Film Entered the Public Domain: 1990 Film 6: World's Fair Night Aerials (1964) COLOR SILENT Runtime 4 minutes Professionally shot raw footage of aerials of the 1963-1964 World's Fair in New York. The footage is silent, but it is nicely shot in color. The quality of the print is incredibly clean. The best shots are some spectacular shots of the fair's iconic giant globe complete with illuminated continents. In the middle of this film is also some fly overs of a baseball stadium illuminated as if for a night game (but it does not appear as if a game is taking place)-- maybe Yankee Stadium, but more likely Shea Stadium around the time it opened in 1964. Some of the shots in the later part of the reel are a bit dark, but still a wonderful document of one the major world's fairs.Film Release Date: 1964Film Entered the Public Domain: 1993   I claim ownership and rights to this media. All the films on this DVD have been researched and are copyright free or the copyrights have expired due to non renewal.
