1955: The Delaware Valley in the 50's

Thanks to Ed Stawski for sending me this You Tube link to a fascinating old video from Philadlphia channel 3, WPTZ. Roof top antennae, Horn and Hardart, Bethlehem Steel Co. before America shipped all of her manufacturing resources overseas, Cinemascope, Cinerama, WPTZ, and many other nostalgic memories. There is a nice view of State and Broad Streets in Trenton, along with an interesting bird's eye view of Levittown, Pa. before the trees and shrubs hid the homes from view. Thanks, Ed!
