Some old home movies of Stanford, including footage from a football game.

Posted by a friend of mine. She guesses that the footage comes from 1928 or 1929.

Looks like Big Game...1929. Stanford won 21-6.

Fun clip. Boggles me how open the campus was.  Some parts looked like a treeless savanna.  Also, that a car drove by what appears to be the outside corner of the quad. (Encina corner?) We did that once at night.  One of the barrier posts by Meyer Library was missing. Only an understanding campus cop who nicely listened to our bullshit excuse, then gave us 1 min. to get the **** (his word) outa there kept us from prosecution.  I could have used that old clip to expose the school's egregious double standard.

PS: Did I imagine this news: Meyer Library itself is now missing? UPDATE: This is what I get for only going very infrequently and even then just to football games. Maybe I would have noticed something was missing if I'd wandered around more at the reunion last year.

Yes, Meyer was torn down. A sort of pocket amphitheatre is there in its place.

That's pretty cool, thanks for posting.

It took me a few minutes to figure out that at 0:31 we're standing about where Meyer was, looking at the back side of Encina panning to Toyon, and at 0:40 we're looking at the front entrance of Encina.

Next thing you know, you'll be asking why people are wandering around in Old Chem or where the Stern parking lot went ;)

It tanked.

But seriously, it's been gone a long time, and I don't remember how long. So I'm no help.

The question was a bit facetious.  The physics tank was razed shortly after I graduated (so shortly after 1997) to make way for the "new" engineering quad.  "New" in quotes because it's approaching 20 years old!
