This ca. 1941 home movie from the H.O. Johnson Collection, likely shot in Kodachrome or black-and-white, captures a personal slice of pre-WWII life. Possibly filmed by or featuring H.O. Johnson, it might show family gatherings, kids playing, or a road trip—common themes of the era—perhaps in a U.S. town or countryside. With no detailed log, expect shaky shots of daily routines or festive moments, reflecting 1941’s blend of innocence and looming wartime shadows, all through an amateur’s nostalgic lens.
