Traffic Survey Film, part 5

There are some great historical details of Main St., the cars, the officer on the most busy corners directing traffic, the styles of cars, dress, the buildings, and more. It's a five part piece that provides a brief look at life in Springfield, MA in the late 1920's.

The movie is a little choppy and shaky given the film was made with the camera and operator are riding on top of the trolley car as it moves up and down Main St.
