This Is King's Heath 1960

Quite fascinating. I am sure many here will enjoy seeing it. I often travelled through Kings Heath in the early 1950's, so apart from the of traffic, which would be a little more modern, I guess little had greatly changed. The people seem somewhat different in appearance to the present day and much of the character, if not buildings, has changed it seems.
Sink the Bismark! Still going strong. often on television these days. :D
 
Very well filmed and edited, some interesting people and events in there too
 
Many thanks for your kind comments - much appreciated - I'm so pleased to be able to show this and my other home movies to a wider audience rather than letting them gather dust on the shelf!
