Redwood Retro

Our Canadian Flag turned 60 years old this year. Here are some vintage Canadiana clippings, ads and graphics from Canadian newspapers                  Calgary Herald 1965 Buckingham, Quebec 1930 1930 Leader-Post  1930

This is footage from the beginning of a trip from Toronto to California in 1960. The street is Davenport Rd by Old Weston rd. My grandfathers Texaco was next door.

This is a short one of a fire at a Coca Cola plant in Toronto. I'm pretty sure it is 1962. It was shot at the corner of Old Weston Road and Toronto where my family had a Texaco Gas station.  I have decided to put the films on YouTube so I have started a new channel,  Redwood Retro :)  Please subscribe if you like old home movies.
