While researching for a new web page I'm building on Yellowstone National Park, I found a lot of videos on YouTube, but wasn't able to find any footage showing how the park was when some of us might have visited it the first time.
However, I was able to find one in a site called the Internet Archive and I uploaded it to YouTube. It's a public domain film from the forties (I think) -- which was quite a while before my first visit, but there are a lot of familiar scenes.
It'sa little quite hokey, but interesting, with some views of a vintage car and trailer, including one of a lady feeding a bear from the door at the back of the trailer. At one point the lady is shown boiling an egg in a hot spring and you can see a shadow of a man cranking an old style movie camera. The video is 7 minutes long.
