Some things seem so simple

Here’s an edu­ca­tional film from the 1940’s on how banks work. Every­thing seemed so sim­ple. The funny thing is, every bank trans­ac­tion was some­how related to money that was actu­ally IN THE BANK!

Over the past few days I’ve been going through lots of archival footage for the doc­u­men­tary. The best and eas­i­est place is the Prelinger Archives on the Inter­net Archive. They have over 2000 films from the 20s-80s, all avail­able to watch, down­load, and use how­ever you like.
