The first cars are pre 1939. What's the difference between communistas and capitalista? One is a gangster state one is a quasi police state. Corporations are fake entities in contemplation of law. Even the CCP uses them. Communism is a myth; it has never actually happened.

Beautiful video!!! As a “special period baby” I greatly thank you for this; I didn’t get to see my country before it was plagued by destruction and misery. The comment section, on the other hand, is truly disappointing. Came down here hoping someone might’ve identified some of the places shown in the video and the only thing I found was tons of misinformation and the typical unfounded debate of whether or not a communist Cuba would’ve flourished if it wasn’t for the Embargo imposed by the US… It’s saddening how people go out of their way to perpetuate the lies and hate spread during the last six decades. A simple comment on the internet may seem harmless but it turns extremely dangerous when you’re denying the pain and trauma of multiple generations, the true history of a whole country. VIVA CUBA LIBRE!

There’s a mixture of time periods - going from early 30s to mid 50s. The segment in which the cars (late 1920 models) have to step on the sidewalk to make the curb are probably related to the 1933 revolution that overthrew Antonio Machado (the passengers in one car are carrying rifles); it was this overthrow that first put Batista in the political limelight.

Rick88888888 Excellent quality of the original film. Looks better on color. I don't know which software are you using for coloring. I'm an historian for the Public Transportation on Havana and Cuba. The real color of the livery on the tramways was silver grey, with the frame for the doors and windows on yellow. The livery of the buses was orange, with a dark green stripe and brown on the top, cause the bodies were made of wood and they used the same paint on the roofs than the used on awnings to make it water tight. The date of the film should be by the end of 1948 or beginnings of 1949. On 1950 there were metal bodies buses including General Motors old look.

Having a parasite, like Fidel and,more importantly, those who financed his "enthronement," is what caused the demise - all that happened there was a prelude of what's occurring now in the U.S.A and other parts of the, so called, Free World.

I'm Cuban and from Havana, born and raised. I have so much to say! I can recognize almost every location. The only significant changes in the urban design of my city is the decadence and destruction after 60+ years of communism, it makes Havana looks like we have been thru war. That's why I think Havana is the city of nostalgia, we Cubans live in that nostalgia. From what I see the videos are from the 40s to the very early 50's. Some of the places I recognize from the video: @0:11 That's close to the beginning of Malecon in the Morro Side. @0:37 The once tramway crossing in front of Capitolio @2.39 Iglesia del Corazon de Jesus @6:22 The University of Havana @7:29 Paseo de Prado @11:30 Monument to Jose Miguel Gomez @12:48 Maceo Monument with presidential palace in the background @13:45 Castillo de la Real Fuerza I guess that I never paid attention to most of those places while living in Cuba, maybe because I didn't have "tourist's eyes", I left 5 years ago when I was 18.

Shortages? Read this: “The Economic Blockade that United States imposed on Cuba, and which has been uninterrupted for more than 60 years, is product of the revenge of Dulles brothers against Fidel Castro, as a result of Castro expropriating the United Fruit Company (UFCO), more than 50,000 hectares of cultivation (Sugar Cane). Allen Dulles (CIA Director), and his brother John Foster Dulles (US Secretary of State), were a shareholder in UFCO, and were on the payroll for more than 20 years. Both Bros. demanded payment from Cuban Gov’t for the land expropriated at ridiculously high amount, when United Fruit Co. had obtained these large estates for $7 dollars per hectare and demanded compensation for $4,800 dollars per hectare. Castro was also asked to pay the cost of hotels, houses and casinos owned by the New York Mafia and other figures of high politics in the US. As Cuba does not pay, the Economic Blockade continues. “If we can't assassinate Castro, let's assassinate his economy”. Now, 12 Presidents have passed in the White House, and the Blockade continues. Castro, Dulles Bros., Meyer Lansky, Kennedy, LBJ and all that generation have already died; they are no longer here. And the Economic Blockade continues. Why? Why, if Castro NEVER affected the interests of the US people? Castro affected the interests of the New York Mafia, the UFCO and the interests of the Dulles Brothers. The Castro Gov't affected the interests some companies (6 companies), that conspired to assassinate him, but not affected the US People. (It would be an example to say that Mexico imposed an Economic Block on the US, cuz the US Gov’t confiscated properties from “El Chapo”, or from the Mexican Drug Trafficking Cartels). Castro never seized property from US citizens. Castro only seized the property of the New York Mafia. So, why? If perhaps the reason for the Blockade was cuz Fidel Castro was an ally of USSR, well, USSR has not existed for more than 30 years either. Then why? What is the reason for continuing with this Economic Blockade against Cuba? The answer to these questions, in any case, would be: "Cuz a dark power within the US wants to impose itself in Cuba, violating its sovereignty, in the same way that it has done and continues to do so throughout the world with the weakest nations". No common citizen of the US has anything against the Cuban people, but a certain sector of the Government's High Politics does…” Now, If you want to know about the atrocities and massacres of the UFCO and the CIA in Chile, Venezuela, Peru, Colombia, Cuba, all the Caribbean and Central America, consult Wikipedia: “Wars of the Banana Republics”. (From Stephen Kinzer book: “The Brothers”). Write the latter that appears in parentheses, and verify this information right here on KZitem. Or, do the same and search for it on Google.

Definitely pre-1952 with the trams/streetcars still in operation. The system was unusual with the cars having twin trolley poles and overhead wires instead of the usual single pole and wire and the return of the circuit through the track. Apparently there were a number of reasons - dust on the track in the dry season preventing good contact plus flooding in the wet season.

Lol This was in the early 50s when literally 85% of the population lived in huts and 90% of the population didn't know how to read. Books were not even published in Cuba until the 1960s. The only people who had it good in the early 50s were the few people who lived in Havana who associated with politicians or mobsters.
