Originally produced by the Whitefoot Studio, and presented by The Board of Park Commissioners of Vancouver in 1940, this silent film looks in-depth at the numerous parks that rest within the city limits of Greater Vancouver. It’s a long clip, but this vintage documentation is truly unique. Check out the free swimming lessons section by the Vancouver Sun at Second Beach about 13 minutes in—amazing! I’d love to see that start up again (my front crawl could use a little work).
