SJ now filled with Hindu Indians... ugh

I would sell my soul to have lived in that time period in California. As close to utopia as you'll probably get.

Now sitting on top of 8-10 ft of the best topsoil in the world. All cemented over.

Very nice.

Trapped in time, these lovely damsels!

Before the whole place got too big for its britches.

Sure was nice before it became a liberal utopia.

Get your vaxes, folks, so we can get back to a sparsley-populated world again. (Your pal, Dr. Fauci)

this would be late 71 or early 72.

Incredible! Thanks!

Ah! The good ole days. My home town. I was 9 and remember it all. Thank you😊

I remember that day! I was in the 7th grade at Miller Jr. High and there was snow on the school grounds. My parents experienced the same thing in San Jose around I think was 1960 when it snowed in the valley.

I recall the 1976 snow fall, I was 9-years old at the time. We were living in the Evergreen area near Aborn Road and San Fellipe Road. The snow lasted until about 12 noon. It snowed again in the early 1990s but that was at night and it melted right away.

Growing up in Palo Alto in the 1960's there was plenty to do on the Stanford Campus. We used to ride our bikes all around the top and down the inside and down the bowl of the amphitheater, or ride over to Hoover Tower and take the elevator to the observation deck. The authorities never seemed to mind. It was a great time to live in the Bay Area.

Santa Cruz isn't the same lol hahahaha. It's ruined now

Life was different back then.

Me & my dad used to drop mom off downtown at the chamber of commerce where she worked. So I grew up thinking my mom was a prostitute.

With all the dairy men out on a field trip, who's gonna feed them cows?

And absolutely no one was fat!

Really great. Would love to know their back stories now.

Thank you for sharing!

I lived up on the west side of S C How different it is today what with the weather and all .

Seabright School I went to, back in 1960...quite a memory and SC before UC destroyed it's charm by teh 70's. Thanks.

Thanks for this. At age 12 I guess I was going to Egan junior high. Oh the memories 😊

Where exactly did the rodeo take place? I seem to think this was the old stretch of 101 that later became Veterans Blvd.?

A few of those old neon signs, a very few, can still be found on Bascom Avenue in Santa Clara. Almost washed away now by the rapid growth of the tech era.

Santa Cruz is a special place and like the rest of California was much much nicer thirty, forty years back when there were way less people. The quality of life there has been destroyed. Enjoy!

I was born and raised in San Jose, I live not too far from Alum Rock park. When I was in High School, we used to run from Independence high to Alum Rock for Cross Country practice, back in the late 70’s and early 80’s.

I was 9 years old, living in San Jose when the film was made, how things have changed.

Used to be a beautiful city now it’s overrun with illegals from around the world looks and smells like a third world dump ! Thanks to all these pathetic Democrats

What the heck is up with this "tree agenda" -- he certainly had some purpose in mind beyond creating a historical artifact...

Wow JFK phucked everything up

Time has changed. Noticed how many ppl involved here, not today, I still work in Newspapers, Production is just two guys to deal with 3 depts.

I was 7. The year my Dad died. I’m glad I grew up in SJ when I did!

Very good job!

I was in first grade in Sunnyvale. It was on a Sunday, so all the kids were out playing in it. We stockpiled some of the snow and the next day got in trouble for throwing snowballs at cars that drove by. I blame my neighbor Steve because he was older and more mischievous than me.

My family has been here for over a hundred year’s. It’s changed so much even in the past 20 years.I love how all the people used to look so nice.

I've lived in San Jose since 2010 (and Silicon Valley since 1997). It's so strange to see recognizable buildings in this 1950s video of downtown San Jose. I pass by these buildings every day .

We had a boat at Santa Cruz yacht harbor in the 60s.We spent many a weekend going "over the hill" from Saratoga.Hwy 17had no krails and every curve was banked opposite of the curve!One such curve we referred to as Deadmans curve.When you have a curve in the road that is banked the opposite direction,it gives people a false sense of confidence!There waa a graveyard of cars for some time in the valley below that particular turn

OMG !Just scrolling and saw this!This is one of my earliest memories.I has just turned 4.My siblings were 6,9,and 10 years older,so they were 10,13,and 14 yrs old,but that day we were all the same age!Building a snowman was everything!Thank you to the person who has an 8mm and filmed this

Homes were probably all constructed with old growth redwood that would make superior building lumber. The Internet Archive has a great collection of historic books on redwood lumber uses

where was this filmed at?

was this at cupertino high?
