San Francisco 1958

Jeff Altman is an aspiring feature film colorist, amateur photographer, and overall OK person. This footage features his grandfather; both behind and in front of the camera.

"It was edited by hand some 50 years ago by my grandfather shortly after shooting it. Judging by the 3 minute length, I would say its safe to assume you're seeing all the footage he shot. 100 foot rolls of 16mm are of about 3 minutes in length. The order of the shots were probably changed, as well as removal of flash frames and other junk."
