Philly in the 1950s

I know there are lots of Pennsylvania forumers here, so I thought I would share this neat promotional video of Philadelphia & surrounding areas from around 1951. Pre-offshoring,pre-drive thru, and mostly pre-suburbia, this is an interesting blast from the past.

Little did they know that the mighty Bethlehem Steel would be nothing more than a memory in 45 years.

Oh man, love to see the streets clogged with the Big Three.
