1912-1913 Wooster Ohio Film Clips Part 02

This is the second part of the original film which had to be split in two to meet YouTube's 15-minute video rule. During 1912-1913 film-maker Charles Vance Burton (b.1877-d.1945), working for the Specialty Film Company out of Cleveland, Ohio, came to Wooster, Ohio and recorded various people and places on film. It is believed the film clips were originally intended to be played in local movie theaters before and after the feature films as added entertainment. The original films were saved and stored for many years before being re-discovered by Dudley Shamp and Harry McClarran, who brought them to the Wa. Co. Historical Society of Ohio. The films were then sent to the Library of Congress Motion Picture Conservation Center, located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio in 2008 where they were deemed historically significant and were professionally restored by government conservationists. The original Wooster films continue to be stored and maintained by the Library of Congress Motion Picture Conservation Center that now consists of two primary facilities, the Film Vaults and the Motion Picture Preservation Laboratory.
