Would You Like To Live in the 1930s???
People forget that this was the depression, my grandparents often told me about soup lines etc.. my grandfather did any kind of menial job that was offered simply to put a little food on the table.
Yes, I would like to have lived back then.
@@lilajagears8317 Even with the depression, the people were much happier than today! And they had purpose, national pride and unity! America was still one nation under God, and a glorious nation. Now sadly, the West is falling.
@@lilajagears8317 Give me the great depression, I give you WOKE, Rainbow Nazi propaganda and all the perversion we are living now. I don't care about the economy if the values are intact. Europe after WW2 was way worst than the Great Depression and the people survived with strong ethic and family values, like Americans after the GD. Today, we are encouraging school kids to be ashamed of their ancestors and to change their sex.
Maybe we did…..
This is actually San Pedro St near Manchester in South Central LA. Most of those houses are still there. I lived not far from here when I was a kid.
Makes more sense. Although I'm not as familiar with that part of LA, that is not Pedro, too flat. And there's no Olympic street in Pedro that I remember . Thanks for the clarification.
I challenge folks to go take a peak at Google maps to see what San Pedro and Manchester intersection looks like today. (looks like shhh!)
@@truthseeker6377 Definitely.
Any guess what school these kids would be going to...doesn't look like Pedro but more like South LA
@@harryclay6256 Definitely Fremont HS.
While I’m watching this I keep wondering how many of those boys would end up in WWII.
Great stuff, always enjoy NASS!

Major General Smedley Butler, along with MacArthur and Eisenhower, were ordered to fire on their own in the Bonus Army incident in 1930. Butler refused, remained a two star general and wrote this book.
My father lived near Olympic and highland in the 1930s. He said almost half of the men in LAHS class of 1941 died. That may be an exaggeration, but all his childhood buddies died in ww2
@@bennri That is really sad to hear that he lost so many friends from School. Los Angeles county lost a total of 9,283 in WW2 out of a total population of 2,785,643 as of 1940 which is a ratio of 0.3% but of course the recruits were of a specific age group so it stands to reason.
not many. it was the sovietunion who won the war and defeated the nazis, which were armed and rebuilt by Usa and UK to destroy the sovietunion.
@@drscopeifyYes. Around 400 thousand Americans lost in WW2. But of course only around ten to twenty percent would serve in the infantry or front line roles. The vast majority in support roles. By late 1944 for example they were so short of available infantry in France they were rushing them to the front line. So many had been killed and wounded since D Day. Stephen Ambrose the Band of Brothers author wrote about this in Citizen Soldiers.
Love the old school traffic lights with the mechanical arms.
Nass, great job as usual. You really take us back to the past in these great videos of yours! I like seeing scenes of just day to day people doing their daily tasks. Thank you! 😊
Thank you bro!
I do too. When you watch movies or anything else that’s staged from this time, it’s exactly that: staged. Compared to today where everyone has a camera, back then, if someone has a camera, it’s typically big, rare, and probably an exciting event (as one can see from those who realized they were being filmed).
Looking at the cars (which is something I do), I'd say this film is from around 1936. I saw a 1934 Pierce Arrow and a 1935 Chevrolet and a few 1934-35 Fords. A 1934 Lasalle also made an appearance. No cars on this video are 1936 or beyond in their production- though it could be that no 'new' cars drove down the streets.
thank you
As a vintage clothing aficionado with 25 years of experience, I'd say you are correct - 1936!
At time marker: 8:30 you can see a theatrical poster for "The Drunkard" which was playing in Los Angeles for over two decades. It open in 1933 and the poster shows the production on it's 5th year: 1938
@@nwicconsultants6640 You may be right. It can be difficult to tell year by clothing in the late 30s. People were thrifty with their clothes. Dresses and trousers were constantly mended and reused. Same can be said for WW2 era.
Samuel Gompers Middle School there was founded 1937@@jjsolis8259
Notice the old semaphore STOP-GO traffic signals beginning at 8:38. Those lasted in Los Angeles until 1956.
6:35 time traveller😯
Ah thanks now I know why in Mexico they call traffic lights - semaforo
What tugs for me a bit is that in the mid-1930s my Mom, growing up in Montreal, would've been the same age group as these teens. (She passed away in 2019 after a long life of 98 years.)
Whoa, My Dad was a Montreal Native, he was born in 1929, the year of the Great Depression. He moved to San Diego Cali. Where I still Reside, after the Navy in Korea, in 1951 I believe. So I'm guessing Tour Mom & My Dad were Youngsters in Montreal at Roughly the Same time💙🩵😁
@@jpr1845 I grew up in the San Diego area! Wish I could have Afforded to live there!.40 s to 50s!
My mom was born in March of 1928. She passed in December 2021. This made me think of her.
Not one kid doubled over carrying a 99 pound backpack as we see today. I wasn't a school aged kid back then but the 40s & 50s were very much like what you are showing us here. And we have to appreciate the fact that sidewalks just weren't wide enough for a group of friends to walk side-by-side like we are seeing here. Great video. Brings back a flood of memories.
Or kids with drugs and guns as well!!!
They had lockers at school and very little homework.
I noticed that it's not a video from the 30s. That's, at best, late 40s early 50s but still a world of difference
@@brianboye8025 They had very little homework? I don't think so.
@@peanutbuttergirl6098thirties and forties. Not fifties.
There are a lot of 1938 period vehicles here, this is likely close to being 1939 / 1940 time frame. Great footage.
I didn’t recognize any ‘38 cars, tho’ there could have been. At 8:56 there is a ‘37 Chevy facing head on at the intersection.
I was thinking about the same, in terms of fashion.
@@LaurenMirandaG Yes, and the girls hairstyles too.
I was thinking 1940 at the earliest... "new" cars would have been few and far between.
I was thinking about how the kids dressed the same way as our grandmas and grandpas.
Excellent! It show not only the times, but the people’s behavior during those time.. No rage when driving. No doubts ,people show decency and politeness. Thanks for the videos. They are historical and teach a lot!👏👏👏
thank you so much
You are seeing one 9 minute video, hardly enough to gage what people were like back then. Human nature doesn't change, only the technology. This is merely a tiny glimpse of one stretch of street in California shot 90 years ago. I bet there was road rage, incivility and lots of other bad things we see today. You could shoot the same amount of footage today somewhere else (or the same place) and get the same impression.
user-xx.... - When you spent as much time as I did, hanging around an old barbershop, where 90% of the customers were WWII veterans, you learn much. These old timers always talked about America at that time and how much better it was then than it was back in say, the 90's, at that time. The video is accurate and human nature has drastically changed. I couldn't disagree with you more.
@@MrRJDB1969 Human emotions and therefore human nature have not changed. We still have greed and jealousy, wars and human beings struggling to win power and dominate other human beings. Maybe a future war (in the not too distant future either) really might be the end of all wars (as they said in WW1 - ha ha) if it goes nuclear, and there's a better than even chance it will. The world is a tinder box armed to the teeth with nuclear missiles and people like Putin and Kim Jung threatening to use them. Those old timers you mention were comparing one era to another, probably the 1930s, when the country had no financial safety nets to later when it did, like social security. People still make those comparisons today, just as they have done for millennium and will continue to do. We are a destructive species, my friend. Always have been, always will be.
@@MarkMiller-i8qThe voice of reason. These nostalgic films always seem to bring out the same unhappy people talking about the good old days. Yes some things were good and some not so good just like any era and any place. Glad you put it in perspective.
San Pedro and its citizens looked pretty good during the Great Depression.
Many Croats were living in San Pedro during the time of the video
This is not the city of San Pedro. This is San Pedro street near Manchester in Los Angeles.
That's not San Pedro, it's San Pedro Street. They need to change the title.
@@jjsolis8259 exactly.
Yes, they look too well dressed, and this is definitely not San Pedro. Probably LA.

Should the title read "San Pedro St."? It's definitely not San Pedro because I grew up there and that's not it.
¡Muchísimas gracias! Evocativas imágenes de un pasado feliz. ... Ni se imaginaban esas gentes la descomposición social que vendría con el tiempo.
@@IceLynne Well.. it probably looks different in the 1930s?

I agree. At first i was on the fence with the colorization but i actually like how it fades in and out occasionally and reminds us even though photos and film of the time were black and white the world was still in color.
The frame rate really makes these people come alive more than any old film I've ever seen.
It actually makes watching this fucking horrible lol.
It does humanize them. before they were just...there...now theyre intreaging.
Almost 100 years ago and stil better developed then many places in the world nowdays.
Totally agree. I live in México but this the USA I still have in my mind. I wish I could live in a place like this.
LA was cleaner back then then it is now.
Keep in mind, it became more developed after the war with the baby boom

First, let me say thank you for your great work! You’re sharing this brings great joy to many people! Watching the school children was delightful, and seeing the old trucks at the construction sites was so amusing compared to how we do things today. Makes me kinda wish I lived back then…. I’m always delighted when one of your videos arrive in my notifications❤.
thank you so much
Some of those boys are headed right into WWii
That was my thought also.
Yes they would go on to fight for the New World Order that would lead to their own destruction killing their own brothers and sisters in the process.
What wasted service!😢
Moving houses (instead of just moving out of houses) was more popular back then. Very few sidewalks, so kids getting out of school had to walk home on the street. And in packs of either women only or guys only - no mixing. A theatre ad for that old "drinking daddy is bad" play The Drunkard. Clothing pretty good, too - considering it was during the Depression.
It looks to me like they are widening the street so the houses have to go.
I could watch these all day.
Me too❗️❤️
So fascinating!! I especially like this video since it shows such everyday things like kids walking home from school (I'm guessing).
Crazy to think what these places look like now
That whole area is now one big barrio.

Times were difficult financially, but Americans kept their civility. Unlike today...
"Americans kept their civility. Unlike today..." - oh please. Gangs during Prohibition laying the foundation for organized crime that continues to this day.
look at the demographics... white.
Because the HART-CELLLER Immigration Act of 1965 drastically CHANGED the racial makeup of the U.S.
by CHANGING the foreign country quotas and prioritizing MORE 3rd-worlders... the results you currently observe with runaway crime, Big Gov't programs that undermined the family,
and increased dependency on gov't programs, and the promotion of lying history that promoted degenerate cultural rot... and that's BEFORE millions of illegal aliens
were not only allowed to invade, but YOUR TAX MONIES are being spent to provide them with a much better life than they EVER HAD in their home countries...
and ALL they have to do is cross the border and wait... while working on anchor babies that allow THOSE babies to bring in MORE family members.
Demographics is destiny.
((( destiny )))
NASS! Thanks for posting this video.
Thank you bro!
i'm L.A. born and raised (born 68) as were both my parents this footage is incredible amazing what modern tech can do i love old footage of "common folk" so much more interesting than celebrities and whatnot (and far rarer too) but as a longtime goth/metalhead/punkrocker/ overall alternadude i can't help but notice how much everybody looked and dressed the same back then (hair-do's on girls are nearly all identical) i find that kinda depressing.
so grateful we as a society have opened up so much to different esthetics and how much freer we are these days to express ourselves visually. i personally credit the invention of rock n' roll in the early 50's with insigating much of that change.
Yea very true! Back then we know who is a boy and a girl but now it is soo confusing! We have goths with painted fingernails with all black attire living in the dark! There was moral back then compared to now that everyone is acting like a zombie/lost
That is so amazing! Incredible work, well done.
About 85 years ago, very very few of these peeps still around.
My mom was born in Los Angeles in 1930, she passed away in 2022 @ 92.
Another great video!!! Title is a little confusing as I believe that that is San Pedro Street in LA, not the town of San Pedro. Cool to see how the kids "dressed" up for school! Even in LA no short pants and girls all wore dresses!! Most of the kids walked home, not like today everybody picks up in the kids in Mercedes and Tesla SUVs!
thank you very much

My Dad grew up in San Pedro during the depression here in San Pedro. Actually around this time they were starting to come out of it a little bit. However, the war helped greatly. I have been here, it is still a beautiful little place. But, as beautiful as it was, it was very tough for my Dad. He went into the war though (WWII) and then to Cal Poly on the GI Bill. He was recruted right off the campus (he was majoring in Engineering) and was recruited right off the campus by NASA and became an Aerospace Engineer for them for his life's career.
Thank you again for a wonderful time travel few minutes. ❤
thank you very much ;)
Late 30's by the looks of it. Lots of kids walking to school, I see many 1920's autos still running about. A lot of empty lots, which would be filled out by the mid 1950's.
so cool...everyone of those shown has grown up, had a career, had kids, grandkids, great grandkids, and are now dead.....life is fleeting...
A surprising lack of green hair, nose rings, and face tattoos.
With sidewalks available, they were they walking in the busy street? Thanks for this forgotten slice of life.
because only 30 years prior streets were for people and horses and cars didnt exist yet
What are you talking about. Where do you see sidewalks in that part of the video? Weird.
I see no sidewalks in most of that video.
A lot of areas today still don't have sidewalks since developers don't want to foot the cost.
This is exceptionally cool. They all seem like real people going about their lives, rather than sped-up black-and-white cardboard cutouts of a time past. Like it could have been filmed yesterday. And apparently, when cars have a top speed of about 35 mph, walking in the street feels somewhat safe..?
My grandparents lived in San Pedro as a young couple back in the 30s. It’s hard to believe it was almost 100 years ago!
I want to go back to that simpler time!
"I want to go back to that simpler time!" I doubt if African Americans or other minorities would share that sentiment. Or anyone in need of modern medicine.
That's too bad . Those were simpler times and things were much safer back than.
I love your videos of early century California, looks so beautiful and bright with hope. ❤

My grandma and great grandmother had just moved to San Pedro at this time with my great grandma’s second husband. It looks wildly different today obviously
I believe the location is on San Pedro Street in Los Angeles not the city of San Pedro although many neighborhoods in greater Los Angeles had a similar look and feel. My family built a house in the early 30’s in North Hollywood/Valley Village. My Mom and her siblings grew up there although her Father was in the Navy so they lived all over. My Brothers and I grew up in that same house and it is still there looking quite different after many renovations but still the bones are almost 100 years old.
Find where the High School was and you can probably find the block most of this was shot at. Looks also like a house was being moved from one lot to another. Interesting stuff.
Fremont HS on 76th & San Pedro St. I lived not far from here when I was a kid.
Exactly what I scrolled thru the comments to find haha
Interesting that those big houses around Olympic Blvd. would mostly be 20 - 30 years old when this film was shot, but they look so OLD...but they also look picturesque & fascinating.
Back before The Beatles and "Yesterday", Elvis, The Vietnam War, Moon Landings, Korea, WWII.. These people(some of whom are still with us) were idling on the cusp of history. The Greatest and the Silent Generations, going about their day to day.

That's amazing. After all, this is a video from nearly 100 years ago.
Around this time, some Japanese farming families were escaping Japan to Torrance and Santa Barbara (Sumidasan) to avoid the increasing militarism. What amazing change Japan has undergone since this time!

3:47 The Fancy Pants Guys lol.
So cool to see the kids with aspirations just like today. ✨
Kids took pride in how they dressed.
To an extent. Especially if they were going to church or out on a date. The kids' parents took more pride in how their kids were dressed, and if they had the funds, made sure their kids looked decent. Schools also had dress codes (that we would now consider unbelievably strict) on what kids could wear to school.
There was a dress code. Their parents made them dress that way.
During these days, everyone walked in LA. Decades later, song comes out "nobody walks in LA". Times sure have changed. What a shame.
Stunning. I want to go there. Shame what happened to LA, and to the entire country. Looks more like "Summer of 42" than the '30s.
The clothing is smartly designed. Good clothing with style costs a fortune today. They had style in that era. Deviancy/Delinquency seems to be the defining characteristic of todays school kids Orwell was spot on.
@tomb9696: Plenty of nice clothes for cheap at Goodwill or Salvation Army but kids these days won't wear anything but new so the price isn't really the problem, it's called being spoiled!
The observation that stands out to me is the quality of the road and the water drainage system on the side. I was not aware this technology existed and was used so long ago.
Is this John C. Fremont High School on San Pedro Street? Wow, the area looks 1000% different!

Lots of pleasant faces. No bussing. You walk your butt home from school.
There were school busses. The rule varied by school district and such, but generally, busses were only for kids that lived more than a mile from school. Under a mile, you walked. No soccer moms to take their kids to school and pick them up.
What there wasn't was "school bussing" that appeared in the late 1960s, where courts said kids had to be bussed 25 or 50 miles to a school on the other side of town to "increase diversity". You have probably never been on (or seen) a school bus from that era, but believe me, after getting up at 4 am to catch the school bus by 5 to be at school before 8, you were not going to be awake or coherent for any of your classes. After another two or three hours to be home in the evening by 7 or 8 pm, and you weren't in shape to play, do homework, or even carry on a conversation for longer than 10 seconds. Do that 5 days a week for years, and you will have learned absolutely nothing except a hatred of school busses.
