Keene Reel 9, Campsite, Town, and Animal Footage
Animal feeding
Farmyards
Campsites
Taxidermy
Cooking
Keene, Herman, 1878-1965
Black-and-white footage of camping and general frontier life, some disturbing and graphic, featuring a variety of animals, interspersed with scenes of activity in and around a newly developed town.
Men cook, roll cigarettes, pose for portraits in campsites; some camps are set along dry hills, others in the shade beside small creeks. The longest section of the camping footage focuses on one elaborate creekside campsite, with a large tent, shaded dining area with a hammock, a private bathing area. Later, men guide horses to a campsite with a large flagpole, bearing an American flag and a plaque that reads, "Forest Fireman Station – Maps, Information and Campfire Permits."
In town, the camera focuses on a large, two-story house, and captures various men posing in front of it. Various people are pictured in front of their homes; men socialize in the street. Later, a small café appears, with a neon sign noting "Dick's Sandwiches." An employee in a clean white paper hat, shirt, and apron steps outside and poses before the building.
One section shows a zoo or wildlife preserve of some sort, where men inspect a snake, an African lion cub, and a field of beehives. Elsewhere, men feed and pet donkeys and horses before large barns. One man feeds a large crowd of swans and other birds; another man guides a small wagon driven by (and full of) dogs. A taxidermist examines a dead mountain lion; a kitten studies a dead coyote. A small child climbs onto a stuffed mountain lion (later became part of the Museum of Ventura County collection). A bearded man in a cap, possibly Herman Keene, later poses beside the same taxidermized lion.
