DESCRIPTION:
This amateur film was NOT taken by my father, but by tourists to Montreal and Quebec City in 1940. Colour 16mm film would have been very rare - and expensive - at that time.
In 1993, my Dad wrote: "These films were taken by persons unknown to me. I obtained these films from a chap at the office merely to use their reels to hold four 100' films of my own and then to destroy the film on them. However I decided to keep some of the films as they depicted life in Montreal and Toronto around the late 1930s, early 1940s. They are very interesting."
