Pietsch CA Trips, 1940s

This 1940s Pietsch Collection home movie, labeled Can 10373, captures California road trips in Kodachrome, spotlighting Boulder Dam (Hoover Dam). Likely featuring POV drives through desert highways, it might show the dam’s towering concrete and Lake Mead, alongside family stops—Mr. Pietsch filming, Mrs. Pietsch posing—at spots like Los Angeles streets or coastal towns. A pre-WWII travelogue, it blends engineering marvels with Golden State scenery, all through the Pietschs’ amateur lens, possibly with quirky roadside moments.
