New Years Eve 1936 (Home Movie)

The family welcomes the arrival of 1937 with a party at Noel and Marion's apartment at 5401 S. Ellis Avenue, Chicago. The 8 mm camera was rather new, so they had a lot of fun goofing around. They sing Auld Lang Syne (even though there is no sound) and wish each other Happy New Year. They play Spin the Platter, pretend to hypnotize, and even have a drinking contest. The party starts out slow with just the immediate family and a friend, then gradually more people arrive. I think it's fun to look at this, realizing that alcohol has just been legal again for a few years. And knowing that it's a family in which both parents and the three daughters (all mid 20s to early 30s) are Chicago school teachers.
