San Francisco Market Street, 1906

January 9th, 2012

This film is amazing for at least a couple reasons. One, that it so well captures the spirit a commercially-bustling city long, long ago, when film itself was in its infancy, and two, because it was filmed just four days before the devastating 1906 San Francisco earthquake. It was originally thought to have been filmed in 1905, but research discovered the correct 1906 date and circumstances.

It’s said that the film was a promotional effort, and indeed if you watch closely, you might notice at least one the cars crossing in front is the same car, circling back around the trolley it was shot from. I’m sure a few extra pedestrians and props supplemented the film as well!
