  • Expo 70 - Osaka via Aqua-Velvet and Digital NZ

    Description: Footage shot at the 1970 expo shot mainly from the monorail. [ video length: 00:08:52, audio: Mute ]

    Source: Archives footage preserved and made available by Archives New Zealand/Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga

    I uploaded this to YouTube - interesting views taken from the monorail. The film is silent, and obviously amateur. I’ve seen photos and posters of this before, but this is something new.
