Films: NFB.ca Launches Today


"NFB.ca is the National Film Board of Canada’s new online film site that puts hundreds of animated films, documentaries, and experimental films back in front of the people that created and paid for them."

quote: DRAWN!

I just finished watching a documentary called "Carts Of Darkness".
"Murray Siple's feature-length documentary follows a group of homeless men who have combined bottle picking with the extreme sport of racing shopping carts down the steep hills of North Vancouver."

Vintage Cars: Volvo P1900


One more P1900 image at Phil Seed's Virtual Cars Museum

Have you ever heard of or seen the Volvo P1900 model? I hadn't. Well, I know practically nothing of cars so that's no surprise really. Learning that only 68 cars of that model were made (1956-1957) of course makes it even less surprising. Read more about it: "I thought it would fall apart!"

Vintage Ads: Christina Lindberg Battery Ad

"Be kind to your radio and your film camera etc. Buy National batteries. It's always cheaper to buy the leakage-safe battery."

Curt of The Groovy Age of Horror blog (NSFW) was kind enough to remind me of this great Christina Lindberg resource: TOMB IT MAY CONCERN - posts labeled Christina Lindberg.
It's NSFW of course. Thanks Curt!
