This clip means so much to us working with Princess Productions to restore the Princess Theater, and I’m sure you will enjoy it too.
On the clip you will see many people in the street, maybe some of your kinfolks from yesteryear, who knows. If you see someone you know, let us know by either sending an email or leaving a comment.
You will also see Mr. L. W. Bevel, the manager in ’39, being greeting and congratulated by city officials of the day. You will also see many young kids streaming out of both the Harriman and South Harriman Schools…maybe you will see your parents or grandparents!
Let us know what you think of the clip and if you see someone you can identify.

Man, that's wild. What a wonderful historical record. Loved all the shots of the kids, and the views of the old town. Very interesting. I know you must just love it.
