It is difficult to watch this with dry eyes. The art form of costume design by George Bailey and Harold Saldenah have been lost. The people knew how to enjoy themselves back then. They are having so much fun.

"dat yankee accent" was one of a few choice journalists like Wilfred A. Lee, Emory Cook and a couple of other "Yanks" that made some excellent docu's and recordings of T&T's history, along with other islands. So glad for folks like them!

I agree that it was a decent festival...Now with the thrash they are displaying is making GOD CRY.....They should be charged for indecent exposure. They have chased the tourist away even in NY...Shame! Shame!

Wow love this.. They made face mask of the foreigners that came to the island long ago Just like they did in mexico. Now such a mixed culture. Its nice they incorporated the new people in their culture. They were making egyptian crowns and harder and stuff

Without the photographers and the voice overs the footage would not exist. Cameras were not common, film and were expensive so those were from others countries were the fim makers. This was starndard English and accepted by most educated countries, even if it sounded strange then. Some of it had to do with sound quality. If only carnival were still like this now. Drink, beads and acres of skin get somewhat boring.
