Not a street scene, but it's still candid; backstage at "Earl Carroll's Sketch Book of 1929" in early 1930:

Thanks for posting those ,the first one got me wondering how did he get those people to come out of all of their store's and pose?
It was also cool to see "my" 1931 Ford rolling around on the streets !

The New Orleans was was interesting ,I noticed the guys scooping up the bananas that feel off the converer belt into the water.

The last one looked like it was shot in a speakeasy and I noticed that everyone in the Band had a hat on !

Thanks again for posting those ,perhaps more members will post clips that they find.

All the Best,Fashion Frank
