Thanks for your comments. You have prompted me to do a little more research and I determined that the film was made in 1905.

The film quality is very good for 1905. This film has survived very well, as very few films from that period have.

Amazing to look back on such a slice of history. The world was completely different then, but fascinating that we can press a few buttons and look back on it. Love these films!

That bus they all climbed into was remarkable. Obviously a slow driver since they all still had their parasols open at the arrival. They looked like a bunch of swans packed into a tight space, when they all opened their parasols. Very funny.

The woman who ran that school lived to 114 and died in 1988. Look up Florence Knapp.

Not the same Miss Knapp, as she did not live and work in New York. Florence Knapp was born in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, United States on October 10, 1873 and died in the same state on January 11, 1988 at the age of 114 years, 93 days. On February 2, 1987, she became the oldest living person in America, following the death of Mary McKinney. On December 27, 1987, she became the oldest verified living person in the world, following the death of Anna Eliza Williams. At the time of her death, she was the oldest person ever from Pennsylvania. Her Pennsylvania longevity record was broken by Sarah Knauss in 1994. Knapp received a teaching certificate after graduating from West Chester Normal School and College in 1884. She taught at elementary school for more than four decades from 1894 until her retirement in 1935. A suffragette, she marched down Philadelphia's Broad Street in 1919 in support of female emancipation. During her retirement, she was active in community affairs, researching and writing papers for the Montgomery County Historical Society. Knapp lived the first 110 years of her life at the stone farmhouse in which she was born. She then moved to a nursing home after breaking a hip. In October 1987, she was honoured by the Pennsylvania legislature after being recognized by Guinness as the oldest person in the United States. A niece described Knapp as "active and independent. She was pretty fiesty at times. She had a sense of humor. . . . When she talked about the suffragette movement, she would say that it was a great victory for women. She was a staunch Democrat - a democratic woman who voted every election until she was 105 or 106." Knapp heralded from a long-lived family - one of her sisters reached the age of 108. grg.org/Gallery/1873Gallery.html#Florence_Knappk

I love in the beginning how the one girl just climbs right onto the car without the ladder and the teacher seems to reprimand her to use the stairs... "Now ladies, at the count of three I want you all to put up your umbrellas..." Gosh I can't imagine walking around Coney Island wearing those dresses. :)
@donkeywithascarf2435
@donkeywithascarf2435 3 месяца назад
They're very comfortable dresses, actually. You can do a number of things without worry like running, climbing trees, hiking, riding horses, golfing, softball, etc. A lot of modern day ppl think those dresses are uncomfortable and restricting, but they're really not. Even the corsests were comfortable. I have custom made stays and corsets. I wear them more than I do modern bras.

The early years of the Coney Island amusement parks has always fascinated me. It's a pleasure to watch footage taken during that time. The girls are a hoot and so cute in the sand and surf, and riding the barrel and the Steeplechase Ride. With the number of tracks on the Steeplechase Ride, I would date this video pre-1907, when the ride was rebuilt. Thanks for sharing!
@opelske
@opelske 15 лет назад
Loved watching this! I have such fond memories of Coney Island in the 1950's - it was still a great place to have fun. Was that a camel ride in the video? And the car that took them to CI, was the wheel on the right?
@friendsfamilyaccount
@friendsfamilyaccount 14 лет назад
For 1905 this is pretty good- pre chaplin, etc., not many films had any sort of "plot" this early on . But one has to sort of wonder - did they need to utilize the first two or three minutes of film of them getting in and then out of the car? Wonder if there was originally more to this film as it ends rather abruptly. It really leaves one wishing for more shots of steeplechase and dreamland! Stuff like the chutes the chutes is missing completely but the swings scene is drawn out. Interesting.

@bettygoodbody
@bettygoodbody 15 лет назад
it took 3 times watching it, i realized that this is the earliest form of movie location acting. the beach scene it is the one without the stockings who falls in the hole, the ladies are told also not to look at the camera, the camel scene with schoolmarm running after them and hoops with same scolding thing are acts prepared in advance by a director. i did not notice the first two times. these are rich girls and edison was part of the business deal to do this bet it was connections with dads.

It's difficult for me to imagine the inconvenience of such clothing! Especially in Summer. As a Central Texan I think I would die, or at least pass out, in our daily 100-105 degree temps with so much clothing! Wow, how did people handle this sort of getup? Amazing!

And it's influence on society and the world in general. It's very sad, and also nowadays society is too fast paced and technology obsessed whereas in those days things were much simpler and relaxed, especially in small towns and rural areas. I think most people except the poor and impoverished were happier
