1977 Chicago Film...

Cool 1977 promotional film by the Chicago Convention and Tourism Bureau...

It's from the late '70's, but the background music has a 1960's
upbeat, jazzy sort of feel to it.  And it's quite a contrast from
today... the people back then were more... ahem.. lighter, shall
we say. Though, to be inclusive, there is a shot of the Billiken
parade.

Fun to see a lot of old places that aren't around anymore... And
amazingly, back then, they had this thing called Christmas!

Enjoy...

  1. No comparison.....as bad and lame as 1977 was...it is superior to 2015 in every way.....especially for Chicago when you look at how many neighborhoods were still livable back then....and how there is now nowhere to fun....except away to another state...the suburbs back then were just that...now many of them are "urbanized".....if you know what I mean....
