Zelinsky Roll 2, 1940s

This 1940s home movie from the Zelinsky Collection’s Roll 2 captures a tender scene, likely in a San Francisco public park—possibly Golden Gate Park. Shot in faded Kodachrome or black-and-white, it features a very young boy and girl playing on grass with a stroller, a parent flickering into view. A standout moment shows the little girl crawling across the lawn, all framed in shaky, nostalgic charm—a quiet slice of pre-WWII family life unfolding amid greenery.
