This is my personal blog / database about Bib overalls in feature films and TV series. It's my first blog. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was created in 2011. From 2012-2020 on Wordpress.com and now I'm back. Many links are wrong but exist (blog search).

I found this by coincidence. I understand that this is a Public Domain movie (footage). I don't know the complete length and if there are other even better scenes of interest. There is also another cotton-picking scene on a different clip (maybe same reel) with at least one boy, but not shown in the preview, so unknown if in bibs. This and other stock companies also have copyrighted movies, also in color, but I don't know of any other involving overalls.
They sell high-quality transfers from master tapes for a very high price for professional re-use. I wonder who pays $ 385 for one Public Domain clip. A short demo on DVD or FTP is available for a minimum of $ 50. I haven't found any details of this movie not even on their website. At least this low-res and watermarked clip (2) can be found on YouTube and is quite interesting enough. I like these classics showing original historical clothes and not costumes.
I have similar entries, however completetly free available on archive.org like "Untitled 1927 Silverton, Oregon nitrate film" (rating 5) and of course "A Rural Community: Holtville, Alabama" (rating 8).
Rating 5-6 for this.
