RARE 16mm FOOTAGE: 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in SAN FRANCISCO 

Its just paper mache :p

Yup. Something happened. Something was erased.

I'm with you.

The exhibition was literally built on landfill. Rubble from the 1906 earthquake was dumped into the bay to create this “land”. There was nothing here but water and estuary before then, certainly no grand buildings. Not sure what ya’ll are smokin’.

@BereanJenn "camp(us)" nice rendering of the term of art. they love that sorcery word salad, don't they?

Can you elaborate on people knew they were part of the show. Do you mean they were like actors acting out a scene

Same way these societies love to dress up and “re-enact” historical scenes. They are making future propaganda to fool the masses into their nonsense narrative.

Yeah, almost like they are actually thousands of years old. Like for real. No really

The original film cameras were hand cranked. This is why the film appeared to be sped up. Because when film is exposed slowly, it appears sped up in play back. The opposite is true. If run through fast, it appears to be in slow motion. Hand cranking also led to the nickname "the grinder" as you could hear the film moving through the intermittent movement. Also where we get the term "shooting".

They didn't speed them up. Time has sped up. Look it up!

Very helpful thanks

That is amazing! Love this!

I felt that way while reading a book written by Helen Keller. Her description of her home was so vivid, it was like I was there. And to top it off - she was blind - yet could make me feel like I was there with her, just by the use of words. Amazing! Like a letter from someone across time!

At least there's a Johnny Rockets.....................

On vey! It's just cheap buildings built out of plaster! We had to take those down! You would never want to live near those! Just look how ugly Paris turned out!

@@robertjohnson5893 lol The sets in Ben Hur appear to be pretty ancient yet they were made in months. I don't get the angle here like it would be waaaayyy more difficult to move all the pieces of an ancient civilization and reassemble them in months than make them put of plaster(which we have SO much documentation and eyewitness accounts of fro people that only died like 20-30 years ago)

@@Tardig Bingo.

except in many cases, they leave 1 or 2 buildings and their defeintly not jute and plaster.@@Tardig

@@leighbaker8846 _They're_ the few buildings that were built / subsequently restored and rebuilt to be permanent such as Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry which originated with the 1893 fair, rebuilt for the 1933 Century of Progress.

Seen that shit bruh. Watch it couple times a month. Old Scary World is an excellent channel as well.

For fiction and fantasy?

"Them trees" were brought in, invoices exist. The structures were built for the fair.

Huh? Why would it be? Crowley was in that business since 1892. And it's "18" not "15".

I do. And we aren't alone.

You believe fantasies. The Roman Empire did not extend to the Americas, You do not know your city's history, The "controllers" are figments of the collective imagination of you 'conspiracy theorists', Your posts are, again, the very definition of "bullshit". If the arch you refer to is at Farnam Park, it was salvaged from an 1887 bank building (U.S. National Bank) and moved to its present location in 1973.

Chaplin.

Built in 1914 - 15.

Wtf

...and how did society morph into what it is today? De-moraled and de-ethiced. Not by accident. It got driven into the direction it went. Why would that be?

@@kurtpeterson315 *Ive got one that can see!* ⌚️

Exactly dumb asses say this is plaster and paper but the 30 year old trees and cactus just magic I guess

Yeah this is ancient architecture. Why would they destroy this? So beautiful!

@@MAGaBAMA_84 Only if 1915 is 'ancient' to you.

You insult yourself. The fair's history is very well documented.

Fantasy and fiction.

See the new lost in space reboot. Season one is all about a planet that resets every so xxx years. Right in our faces lol.

What _IF_ you learned some actual history.

It comes from fools that watch a 'Jon Levi' video and fall for fantasy and fiction rather than studying and appreciating the skill and artistry that went into building the fair structures in 1914 - 15.

@@-oiiio-3993 Your triggered. What ever this jon levi person thinks, at least its not the b.s mainstream narrative story for babies that they feed us. All history is lie, deal with it.

@@aegisreflector1239 Learn to spell. "What ever" with your "triggered" nonsense, your assertion that "all history is a lie" is childish and those that believe so are the "babies". Grow up and learn some facts.

@@-oiiio-3993 And where is the proof to YOUR claims? Because your school teachers told you? Come on, mouth. Lay your proof out instead of talking trash. Tell us how YOU know YOUR version of history is the RIGHT version. If you're so certain of your stance, you should be able to reasonably explain it to us in a few intelligent sentences.

@@GodEmperorOfDune747 You are spitting venom into the wind. You want "a few intelligent sentences"? How about: The structures of the 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition were built for that fair by humans of that time using technologies and skills that were readily available, was done so for profit and pride, was successful, and was taken down afterward as had been stipulated in the original plans (which are a matter of record). The notion that the structures were 'ancient' is absolute nonsense that is easily refuted from an abundance of reputable and reliable resources such as archival records. Tell me; if the structures had been 'ancient', how were they entirely unnoticed by generations of residents, mariners, soldiers at the Presidio, ranchers, missionaries, native peoples who had inhabited the area prior to the fair?

What are you babbling about?

Hi Phil, this is in the public domain. You can use it in whole or in part.

@@Seeen thank you

that fairy part is creepy

The relentless march of time.

Grow up and learn some actual history. Start with steam powered equipment of the industrial age, then progress to 1914 - 15 when the fair structures were built.

Wrong 🤣

Information is available.

@@-oiiio-3993 the information is these buildings plaster. These are first films ive seen close up of the building. The buildings appear to of solid stone/brick/block. Not plaster.

@@grumpystony Most of the structures of the 1915 fair were constructed of staff (a plaster like substance) molded over steel and wood armatures. Yes, they looked like aged stone, just as new Hollywood film sets can look like aged stone.

@@-oiiio-3993 you believe that with 100% certainty? The sculptures,art , building design couldn't be done in 2 3 years. How long did they prep for this. Think it thoroughly, the immense size of the place and its detail. Some of those statues alone could take several years. And they just found handfuls of high quality artists to make them all?

@@grumpystony Yes, I do and you are wrong. Research how it was done and you will be impressed. Your notion that those 'statues' (casts) would take years to create is laughable to those who know the actual history of the fair. How many 'years' would you guess it took to design and build the sets for D.W. Griffith's epic 1916 film, Intolerance? What do you suppose they were made of?

Right? What a load of BS they have been feeding us.

@@-oiiio-3993 lmao no they weren't blind one

@@hernandezmarkie7382 Yes, they were, gullible one. Try actual research (and punctuation).

@-oiiio- or is it you that's the gullible one? Believing everything mainstream academia has been spoon feeding you, when in actuality if YOU did your own research you would find that there really isn't anything showing the construction photos for any of the expos, only destruction and a few photos that show some repairs being done or additions etc. But go ahead and believe that all of those structures were constructed in such a short amount of time only to usually always be burned down not long after by some random accident that makes no sense. Also correcting someone's grammar on here just because you don't like or agree with what someone says is irrelevant, twat:)

This is just how formal the aristocracy is, if you took black and white film of the royal henley regatta (a very posh upperclass rowing event in england) today it would look the same

Why do you idiots prefer fantasy to well documented fact?

If people of 1915 went to a beach or lakeside dressed as they would today it would have led to their prompt arrest. Learn some actual history.

​@@-oiiio-3993 every person commenting likely "knows" more about history than you. As in they didn't memorize some facts they were told and hold it as canon. Most people here have spent days, weeks, months or years researching on their own, free from the myriad biases of Western Education and drawing their own conclusions, rather than being given said conclusions.. Can you explain the aged (very permanent) columns? Can you explain 50+ year old trees butted up to said columns? No, you can't. Same as anybody else. PS Walking in to a conversation and going ad hominem (Numerous comments before this) from go endears you to nobody. Not people of your point of view, nor the inverse.

@@sidneysill8495 You, as so many others here, make foolish and inaccurate assumptions. The columns are not ancient and were constructed (of staff applied to armatures) to appear aged. Research the methods used contemporaneously by Hollywood set designers, particularly for D.W. Griffith's Babylon sets for _Intolerance._ I have provided links elsewhere in this comment section that include detailed information from the firm contracted to transplant hundreds of adult trees to the fair site as well as invoices, photographs of such work in progress. Do actual research, use legitimate sources. There was absolutely nothing 'ancient' about the structures of the Panama Pacific Exposition.

Seriously?

@@itsallperfectlynormal9805 Thats what they tell us!

@@youvegotwood total bs JX! But you know that, you sassy bugger 😉

@@itsallperfectlynormal9805 he's right. That is what they tell us. With wood, cheap materials and plaster just built for 1 year. They demolisted everything , except Fine Arts. And all of the fair was built in +2 years 🤣🤣. Rome was built in 2000+ years but he " We can do that in +2 years" haha

@@itsallperfectlynormal9805 JX is being sarcastic.

Yes, and that area of the San Francisco city peninsula frequently has fog/moisture moving inland over night from the nearby Pacific Ocean.

I also think we lost FAR MORE due to WW I than they wanted to document. In terms of technology and standard of living.

There is literally a video in 1964 showing and explaining that the structures were built by temporary and cheap materials

The structures were built in 1914 - 15 as is very well documented.
