Periscope is one of my favorite channels. I don't know where they get all this stuff, but it's awesome.

Goodnight, that is a treasure.

Technicolor in 1938, they spared no expense.

Pretty awesome!  There's almost a Busby Berkeley quality to some of the rolling mill scenes.

The 1938 date has to be wrong, though - the cars in the highway shots date it to more like 1952 or 1953.

The Library of Congress dates it to 1938... The Iron Range shots were definitely pre DMIR merger as well. Perhaps it was updated at some point...

If someone could identify actual makes and models on the cars might help to date it, the majority looks to be pre-war tho...

This link mentions there was several versions of the film over its 20 year distribution...

This film was worth watching just to see the Hulett unloaders at work.  There are not many good videos of these monsters out there.  Great film!
