Pensacola History

Pensacola Tourism Film 1964
Tourism film by Dodson, Craddock & Born produced on film in 1964. The Spanish music--well, ALL the music, is just hilarious, and the scriptwriting old school. Be watching for the segment on the Pensacola Open (held at the Pensacola Country Club in 1964) where the narrator points out Tom Watson in the blue sweater--but it's all in black & white!!!

Pensacola Beach has always been a destination because of its white sand and turquoise water. But there is (and was) so much more. Check out the tourism film about Pensacola and its history. Many of the attractions and festivals are still going strong!

Pensacola Panorama (1960s)
This film attempts to show what life is like in Pensacola. It shows the Naval Aerospace Medical Institute, home of Miss Baker, the United States' first live space traveler. Viewers also see the Naval Aviation Museum, the Blue Angels Flight Demonstration Team, cultural activities, homes, schools and motels.

Watch to the end to get a glimpse of the beach "in the day!" Enjoy!
