Here’s the first video we’ve made in quite some time. It’s a complition of names and photos of regular Washingtonians who called the District their home between 1912 and 1942.
P.S. Sorry for the typo in the video.

Did you know that the Washington Senators almost moved to Los Angeles?
This is a great find from archive.org. We dug up an old home movie of a family’s visit to Washington and the White House. When you watch it, you’ll be shocked to see how different the times were (i.e., security compared to today was non-existent)

Here is a good video we stumbled upon on YouTube. It was pulled together by Amtrak in 2008, on the occasion of the station’s 100th anniversary.
Here is an interesting video that we found, showing a collection of really old photos of D.C.
Here’s another great video of the old D.C. streetcar system.
This is some really cool old footage. It shows the 82 streetcar line running from Eckington, heading through northeast, up to Mount Rainier, Hyattsville, Riverdale Park, and College Park.
It’s really long, but well worth a watch.
Before the first train ran, WMATA produced an infomercial to build public excitement for the new Washington Metro.
This is a rather strange photo. It’s of the Republican Congressional baseball team parading around the field at American League Park.
The photo was taken on May 3rd, 1926.

Don’t forget to watch Ron Paul crank a double in 1983. More importantly, watch the video to see the awesome Houston Astros uniform he’s wearing.
