1933 General Motors


The Triumph of America (1933) | Chevrolet’s Legacy 🇺🇸 – Part 1
TheCarScene

This video was made almost 100 years ago and automation had already made great strides. At 4:19 the narrator lays out the how much raw material goes into building automobiles. It's a surprisingly large fraction of all production. People wanted cars and were willing to pay for them. This video came out in the midst of the Great Depression. This is a new upload, Part 2 hasn't been posted yet.

P. S. Jam Handy (1886-1983) was an Olympic swimmer as well as a prolific film maker.

Was this the predecessor of the movie "triumph of the will" ? ;-)
