![]() ![]() This color travelogue style film was shot by Norman Schley in April 1954 and offers a first-hand account of Schley’s trip around Missouri. A skilled filmmaker from Wisconsin, Schley made a series of films under the moniker "Schley Ride" and/or "Picturelogue." Some of his films aired on television, while others were shown in front of live audiences. This particular account takes viewers along to explore the sites and wonders of Kansas City, Jackson City, Independence, and Excelsior Springs, Missouri (Part 1) and Kansas City, Jefferson City, St. Louis (Part 2). While many of Schley Ride films are silent, this film is fully narrated by Norman Schley who details both the type of shot he is taking with his camera and his opinions about the place he is visiting. This film not only has footage of important historical landmarks across Missouri but gives insight into the commercialization of middle America, where commercial real estate moguls started to majorly transform formerly sleepy towns.
