Here's a sample of some old home movies I've been transferring to digital media...
The video is about three minutes long, and is of cleanup efforts after the Marine Creek flooded the Stockyards in 1942(?).

Hipolyte,

That movie is amazing, very good quality for a home movie from the 40's I would say. I recognize a few of the businesses signs, love the autos.

The Isis is in there, and Theo's.
I have more stills than video, and I'm still going through the collection, but I'll post anything of interest as I come to it.
