Lick Observatory, Mt. Hamilton, Cal. (1897)


Directed by James H. White this is an early short film. A stagecoach rides up to the front of an observatory.


Like most films of the era there is not a huge amount to this film. A single, static shot shows a stagecoach approach a building and that is all we get. We do not even get all of the building in shot which seems like a mistake given the title.


2/5
