Wonderful New York 1963. In Technirama and Technicolor by Pan American Airlines.

A magnificent New York time capsule released by Pan American Airlines to entice you to visit New York. And that it does, filmed in Technicolor and wide screen Technirama. The streets, the cars, the people, the buildings, the sites day and night. Fantastic aerial shots, Central Park, the Guggenheim, NY Stock Exchange, Times Square, the Statue of Liberty. Grants Tomb, George Washington Bridge, the suburbs, as you tour these places in an automobile. Redevelopment of the old neighborhoods. This travel film is a must see! Mastered from a 16mm Technicolor film.

I received my selective service draft card in 1959 which meantthat I could drink at a bar, went to Birdland the Jazz corner of the world that night, for the next 5 years I almost never was awake in daylight becoming a night time worker, but what jazz music I was listening too ! My life was not like this travelogue and now wished I had a movie camera back then!

If this was shot in 1961, then it was made on the year that I was born. I was born in Brooklyn New York. I enjoyed the 60s and 70s so very much and would go back in a heartbeat.

Was lovely back then, with everybody dressing beautifully....
I remember those great cars, & yes, Pan American Airways!!.
Very clean ...A nice place to travel back
Yes, no cell phones back then.
That's when we all talked - sat together on Sunday evenings!!..
Wow, have things changed.

I was born at Mount Sinai Hospital, June 1961 on 5th Ave. in Manhattan. I remember NY City looking like this, while I played in Central Park. The Biggest Thrill, was all of us going to New York World's Fair in Flushing during 1964-1965 & we got to meet Uncle Walt Disney! I still have my white hat with the blue feather in it, with my name embroidered in orange on the brim of my Fair hat. Happy Memories! Too bad all my family members & everyone I knew from back then, are all dead now, it's so long ago.

Amazing to see the old Pan Am airport terminal operating as it was originally designed to.

I remember when NYC was like this. Not even close anymore!

I was in NYC that year for Christmas, at age 5. I can't believe how clean the city was back then.

If only time travel was possible... I was not born until 1968, but would give anything to go back and experience NYC in the 50's and early 60's

“Not everyone can stay at the Waldorf”. Well as a 21 year old on my first visit I did”. I had been in awe of that hotel since I was a kid and it was like a dream come true. I loved the city then but sadly no more, it’s completely changed and overall not for the better. Such is life.

Born in 1957 but I love the 60's, I have the archive of Life Magazine on my computer only section I read are the magazines from the mid 60's.. Love to see old footage of the city, even back to the 40's and beyond and try to figure out what street that is and what is there now.

Lots of childhood memories
Having been born in Manhattan and lived on 66th St across from Central Park in the 50s and 60s, the film showed so much of structures which were there at that time and no more. The Blue whale, for instance.❤

I adore the opening jazzy background music that is so typical of the sixties, like in Mannix or Mission Impossible. Puts you in the right mind from the start.
