The Lake Winnipesaukee Historical Society would be very interested in obtaining a copy of this video.
We have another video which seems very similar to this.
The society wants to show these videos at its museum and may be able work out an arrangement with the owners to sell them for a small cost at the museum.
David Witham, retired vice principal at Laconia High School and a steamboat enthusiast, is working with the Rev. David Polhemus, formerly with the United Methodist Church in Gilford, to narrate some videos they have of early boating scenes from Lake Winnipesaukee.
And Ed Clark Sr. of Littleton has some rare vintage video of the Old Mount which was shot by Winston Pote, an early 20th century filmmaker, which I have seen. The society is hoping to obtain that film to make a DVD which can be shown and perhaps even marketed at the museum.
