ORIGINAL: th_sfr -`20 Ile de la cite ,Parvis de Notre Dame 48.867341, 2.315630 -1`23 footage taken maybe from either the world exposition of 1885 or 1900. -2`30 For sure it is the Champs Elysees with a look to the Place de l'Etoile. 48.867341, 2.315630 i think in google map. Well there is probably not now a bigger traffic jam... So older is not always better... In Paris pedestrians are torned between the patience which is required for waiting a 'geste de politesse ' from drivers which may probably never come , and the gallic bravado defying everything. -2`45 Place de l'etoile looking towards l'Hotel de la Marine' 48.867341, 2.315630 -3`45 I have no clue -4`10 Seems to be the 'Jardin du Luxembourg' ,now there is still junior and seniors mariners here... https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jardin_du_Luxembourg#/media/Fichier:Bassin_et_bateaux_devant_le_S%C3%A9nat.jpg 48.847247, 2.337251 -5`10 Again it is during a world exposition, specifically the 1900 one . It was a major attraction of this event the 'rue de l'avenir' https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rue_de_l%27Avenir_(Exposition_universelle_de_1900) Check the little footage made by Edison. Thanks for sharing ! warspite1 Thanks for the extra info
