Mr Man the ringmaster sounded just like Bugs bunny, and the lion sounded like another cartoon character that I can’t quite place. A good film teaching kids, and I dare say some adults, about how something we take for granted actually works. 👍
how nice it is to see downtown streets with people and stores open and going to the police station and see the desk sargent anwser the phone, not like today a phone outside the locked door of the police station and calls anwserd by the county dispatch center .
ere's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes. In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous TH-cam users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels. It's hard enough work preserving these films and posting them, without having to spend precious time dealing with policing thievery -- and not what we devoted ourselves to do.

@@PeriscopeFilm: That is quite alright, We don't mind the counter, the films are clear and very entertaining. Thanks for posting and sharing these great clips of a bygone era.
@@PeriscopeFilm Totally understand your reasoning. If I had to be the awkward one, I'd ask that you at least make the black bar semi-transparent - sometimes it obscures titles or other info in the film.
A lot of voice actors that voiced the Looney Toons and other animated cartoons, Mel Blanc, June Foray and others lent their voices to these educational films aimed at children and even some adult training films.
I remember when only seven digits were enough to dial telephones in a long distance neighboring area code as long as the same prefix did not exist in the two area codes. Ten-digit dialing became mandatory in my area code as late as 2015.
555-×××× was created for TV and Films. I recall reading there were movies that had used actual phone numbers and people tried calling the numbers thinking they would reach the location. Additionally 555-2368 was always used in Bell System ads.
When i was.growing up in the early sixties we had 2 phones 1 personal and one my dad when he was in the coin business no more we did not have a area code back then we also had a party line
In 1965 when this film was produced, telephones cannot be unplugged. They were screwed down on the terminals and a cover was screwed down over the block. A party line is a telephone circuit that is shared by multiple telephone service subscribers. A majority of telephone subscribers in the mid-20th century in North America were serviced by party lines, which carried a billing discount over individual service; during wartime shortages, these were often the only available lines. In today's dollars, a residential private line would cost $41.60/month. Residential 2-party line $35.93/month. Residential 4-party $30.73/month. Party lines provided no privacy in communication. If you wanted to use the phone while the party line is being used by another subscriber, you have no way to disconnect the call because the other subscriber is in an unknown location, so you cannot simply go to that location to disconnect the call.
I would be super excited to be approved and I could pay you back immediately I could afford my payments I need the money I got to relocate from you you pulled into my own place

Mel Blanc,
That is the voice of Mel Blanc doing the cartoon character!
And Pamelyn Ferdin as "Susie".

The officer that finds the missing girl is William Boyett, who usually plays (Sgt) "Mac" on the old Adam-12 TV series.
LOVE these types of videos!! These types are my favorites, please keep 'em coming!
Communication!! Like magic
Periscope Films, I love that you guys are keeping these old films alive. I just wish you could make your time bar a bit smaller.
Remove the timecode would be nicer...
A lot of these movies can be found on other channels and in the internet archive without the stupid time counter

who remembers when you only dial area codes for long distance calls?

Wish I had a cool uncle too!
I think he’s a real wet blanket 💦💧
Animated ones are the best. Back when they were hand drawn.
yeah, the good old times when phone-numbers in movies and TV-shows started with "555-...."
Don't ya mean KLondike-5?

They still do

Was there ever any doubt the the rain would stop?
What's more amazing is how quickly everything dried up after it stopped.
Loved my teen line in the mid 60"s. It was a beige princess phone. I was too much of a tomboy for a pink one.
Little Linda was last seen on ELM STREET? I don't fancy her chances .
Uncle Bill seems a bit special.
Special ED that is
Special of the Tab Hunter sort?
Isn't the boy Pat Cardi? He was in Horror High and Let's kill uncle.
Yep, a very young Pat Cardi.
How do you answer the phone in 2024? “WHO DIS”
0:14 difrent telephone ring
It could be a party line with selective ringing.
Pamelyn Ferdin as the little girl.
13:18 just unplug the phone it will disconnect the call.

Those somanumbatches didn't credit Mel Blanc.
21:47 Tintin ?
Dang that caveman sounded just like Captain caveman
Sure sounds like one of the boys is Mel Blanc to me
Yes, it seems quite clear with the Ringmaster. I suspect he did a lot of the other characters as well.
I would be highly grateful for the help
22:09 Thank god they put a Chinese vase there or we would never know that Mrs. Lee is Chinese. Pfft.
Huh! Golly gee, I never knew that!
Is that pam ferdin
Looks just like her.
Yes, she is 63 now..
A little over 200 years later, one of the police chief’s descendants went on to attempt to frame Captain Kirk for his own murder out of jealousy.
One of Uncle Bill's saved Charlton Heston from apes.
Richard Webb was also "Captain Midnight" on TV in the mid-1950's ("Jet Jackson" in syndicated repeats).
