- Let's take a look at another sampling of the Hollywood homes of film people from the 1920s! The Valentino section is unfortunately very short, but hopefully I can find a more in-depth one later.
I don't know if you realize how nice your videos are to watch when most of us are being bombarded by negative media stories everyday. It is nice to escape to the past and imagine what your life would be like....assuming we survived the Spanish Flu!!! LOL
Life was hard back then...but, they had something most don't now days...the ability to dream...
I love going back in time... fabulous channel
@Jolene Pickles OMG, that is amazing!
@Jolene Pickles That's awesome! My grandmother lived the same way unfortunately cancer took her just shy of her 92nd birthday.
Or any other disease they might not have found a treatment/cure for then..
We've found a gorgeous home built between 1928 and 1936 in Texas. This place would be worth millions in Ca. I now have my dream home and am just starting to work on it.
Spanish revival built for an oil rich family. Still pinching myself. Thank you for this video. Keeping with original as possible.
Except it is in Texas...
@@secretariatgirl4249I am from California.. and while you are correct in that the house is not there, It's not where you live, it's how you live. This gorgeous place was built by the top architect of the time, it's over 6000sq ft, we have beautiful drives, with hardly any traffic, the people are gracious. I don't miss Los Angeles and the I'm better than you attitudes. I've moved out of Austin where the soaring prices don't allow for people to buy a home unless their millionaires, you can buy a crackerbox for a few million, (enjoy that).
I am grateful.
Texas, where all the Californians are moving to.
And all the billionaires...
@@secretariatgirl4249 nothing wrong with that. You don't have to like where others choose to live, but there's no need to be a jerk about it. One reason people move is to get away from attitudes like yours!
@@allthingsfrench1391 your new home sounds so wonderful! Congratulations and I hope you have many happy years there!
@@secretariatgirl4249 Texas is a lot nicer than California
I love these time capsules
Ive always been an old soul and am so glad I found your channel. Thank you
I've always liked looking back at the past, and comparing with the present. This is a great channel - Thank you!
When did we begin to think bigger and lavish homes made life a success? We have lost the realization that an open door for friends and family signified wealth.
Amen!!!
Since kings and queens started building castles
Wow, $2,500. for a Malibu cottage. That's about the cost per square foot now.
That was way more than familys salary would be back then
@@createdbynemanja3431 Ehh, it was doable to buy a house on one salary. Can't do that now. So in fact, they made more than we do now if you count cost
I wish I had a time machine and could go back to these times. The best times to be alive unlike today's world.
@Jyoti Squishmallow Hunter sounds like you're speaking of today's world. Everything you said applies to this world that's falling apart. NOT the past.
This takes me back. I moved to Hollywood in the summer of love, 1967. I lived in West Hollywood in garage apartments behind a quasi Tudor shingled house built in the 20’s, on the Boardwalk at Venice beach in the Waldorf Apartments, built as a Waldorf Hotel in the early 20th century, and finally, in first the upstairs, then the downstairs of a wooden house built in early 20th century in the Hollywood Hills. Charming interiors and what views. I loved the nostalgic, frankly fake and fantastical architecture of LA, from the art nouveau and Art Deco buildings downtown, to the humble little court apartments around Hollywood, to the Mediterranean and Spanish sprawlers, and even a couple of mini castles complete with turrets in my neighborhood. And the 20’s was a time when Hollywood really began to grow..it is the decade I am most intrigued by, like Owen Wilson’s character in “Midnight in Paris”.
I didn't want this to end!😍😍😍
I love seeing these pictures of the past
The davenport? Wow...I haven't heard it called that since my grandma died. Oh, and it wasn't a shopping cart 🛒, either...it was a buggy. Miss you, Grandma 💕
You must be southern. I'm a Yankee, and it's a shopping cart here.
Yeah I am old and still call it a buggy. Used to call the refrigerator the ice box!
@@danicegewiss862 Nope. SE Michigan...born & raised.
@@cindibaker4341 Grandma called her fridge the ice box, too! Which makes all the sense in the world, cuz it actually used to be a big wooden box that held blocks of ice that you had to keep replacing.
@@blueyzblue just a note, my grandparents born in 1898 are from hastings, mi. Grandpa had a college education and was a cpa
I love that he speaks in present tense
He's reading from the articles which were written when these stars were still alive. It is nice, though, because it makes them feel less distant to us in time.
@@Tams1978 oooooooh I still like it lol. Thanks!
@@ArielCotton Me too, and you're welcome! 😊
Those folks didn't realize how good they had it.
Once again amazing footage and history!
Oh perfect! Thoroughly enjoyed!🤩
The music also so cool love it..sir show your face to us..love these well researched videos.
New sub here! Loving this video. Looking forward to binging the rest! Thank you ☺️
Love this channel. Thanks for this
Really nice...thanks so much!
I wonder if any of those beach shacks are still there?😄
It would be awesome if you could show an image of the actor/actress and quick bio of who they were in Hollywood. 🤗❤
Thanks, I am a fan of the channel.
Maison is the French word for house/home/homemade and pronounced: mayzone (not mason). :)
I speak French: his pronunciation is much better than your attempt at a phonetic spelling.
@@liketheroman "Me-son" is probably better, but you needn't be rude like a gutter Parisian to make your point. XD
@@Psychol-Snooper the French have a reputation for a reason.
@@TorontoGal74 I found the French very helpful... except in Paris. My experience is not worthy of generalization, though.
You can pronounce foreign words as you please.
A dollar $1.00 in 1920 be worth today is about $13.00. No way that today we would be renting a small beach house today for $13.00 a day.
Beautiful. Truly. Light, breezy. A reaction against the dark, thick from twenty years earlier.
I just love your videos You show us how the real world was back in those days!
Thanks for sharing 😊
Humble little shack is an understatement.
That would have been the era to live in LA
Wish I could find parts 1&2
I never knew .. that people had so much money to play with back in the 1920's .... Oh my Gosh ..
This has nothing to do with left or right politics. It's more about California changing during the 20s until today. The inflation changed everything and costs have risen. Back then things weren't prefab and construction took longer and was put together well. Today it's hurried and rushed and of poor quality and poor construction unless you have millions of dollars and the very best construction companies who take their time building the home.
The world now is nothing but a human cattle drive.
I would love to go back and warn them! LOL
I was wondering if you could do a vid on homes regular people lived in during the twenties? Recently I moved into a house built in 1930 with beautiful hardwood floors arranged into a geometric Art Deco pattern. I suspect the house construction was actually started in 1929 right before the stock market crash and finished the next year since not much of anything was built in the thirties.
Are some of these houses still around today??
Great video
Now I know how SpongeBob and Patrick felt, reading that magazine of the rich and famous. Disappointing that no one had a pool within a pool.
Rent a cottage for $1 a day !!! Im from near the outer banks of north carolina. Its a really expensive area right on the Atlantic Ocean. Several movie stars and some of Americas richest family's have vacation homes there. Its where the Wright Bros. First flew an airplane back in 1903 04 and there was nothing there then some of the homes there now range from 5 to 10 million anyway.....back in the 19teens and 1920s you could BUY land for $1 per acre. It became a getaway spot for the rich and famous back then.Va. Beach and kitty hawk outer banks N.C. as far as the history of the 20th century, i find the 20s one of the most interesting decades of the 20th century. But a lot of Hollywoods biggest and oldest names owned homes there. Douglas Fairbanks, humprey Bogart, Stan Laural as well as famous familys, like the DuPonts and the Coors family. In fact the owner and original founder of Coors beer Adolph Coors commited suicide at a real upscale hotel in Va. Beach. Anyway im glad i found this channel ..the 1920s is a fascinating time in history. Right after the first world war the country was at an economic uptick (till 1929) but i love your channel i just found it and i guess ill be binge watching tonight.
The land was rented for 1 dollar a day, the little cottages' cost began at $2,500 to be constructed on the leased land...pay attention to what he says
@UCcF0L4CGFYfMgGcbCZfgmjw what do you mean pay attention to what he said?? Thats what i said rent a cottage for a dollar a dy. I ynderstand that you have to build the cottage but even after you pay for the cottage you still have to pay rent of a dollar a day.so essentually your renting a cottage for a dollar a day. Im not go8ng to play semantics with you but 10 years after you put the cottage there your still paying a dollar a day for the land which has the cottage on it. So you are essentially renting a cottage for a dollar a day. Your kind of a snide bitch arent you? "Pay attention to what he says"jesus christ the rudeness of people is incredible is that the type of person you want to be? And then to split hairs like that. Your always going to be paying the dollar a day cause your renting /leasing the land. So essentially your renting the cottage for a dollar a day. Do you always need someone to draw a picture for you?
@@kellyhill430 lol I love when someone lets one of these snotty yt commenters have it! Bravo, seriously! ☺ I enjoyed your original comment and thank you for not putting up with Negative Nelly!
This is great, but we need more close ups those photos, with longer times, and enhancements. I appreciate you though
Im CZcams junkie, im picky on who i subscribe to, and out of all the channels, there are 2 that i drop what im doing and consume. Vivian Tries and The1929sChannel. No lie Everytime a see a new upload, im like " aw sweet " So glad I've discovered this channel those months ago. Keep up the great work. Love your narration!
I wonder if you can find old pdf instruction manuals/ ads online about different "new" technology and read those.
Mr. Elite, with only the best of opinions, eh?
@@maineeveryday3991 I guess you become elite status when you been watching the history of CZcams for some length of time. I guess many people have this status now and days. But not like grandma... She's still at a beginner level.🤔
My comment could be read snob but I was surprised myself. I don't do nextflix, Hulu , and all them just CZcams. I watch and support with (my views) over a hundred channels, and THIS ( relatively) new channel takes the 🎂
I wonder what became of Valentino's mansion?
Corinne's house looks like many homes near me.
I kind of want some rooms in my dream house to reflect interior designs from the 1920s. Not sure if I want it have it look as 1920s as possible or if I want to put a modern twist on it.
Wow, luxury has changed.
too bad we couldnt see what those places look like today if they still exist, i imagine Valentino's home might not be around anymore after ww2
The shanty on the beach...is that modern day Malibu???😎
Looks like it is to me.
These houses are now all probably gaudy Persian Palaces built up to the lot line
What a beautiful piece of art. To bad he didnt last long to enjoy this work.why do these actors buy homes with so many rooms.i don't get it.
At a dollar a day that's a lot in taxes even these days I mean I pay taxes once a year and I live in Kentucky. My community taxes for the year was only 130.00, and yes I will pay regular property taxes that will be probably 1,200 to 500 for the year and this is 2021.
💛
More excellent Hollywood history. It's so discouraging that the homes of Norma Talmadge and Colleen Moore were both demolished just in the last few years. Both should have been declared as historical landmarks and protected. Why we continue to destroy the wonders of the past for the eye soars of the present is beyond me.
Why Corrine Griffith would be spinning in her grave today.
Always a struggle for power. Imagine a young Charlie Chaplin driving home bruised and battered from filming slap stick humor. Driving past older stars mansions. If it's slap stick they want, slap stick they will have. Then later Charlie Chaplin invited to Hearst Castle. Newspaper man sold things like being 'woke'. Now that's POWER.
LOL the Bronze one armed statue is Greek an Olympian piece not roman an easy mistake to make
😉
I live in a cottage style home that was built in the 1920’s it was my mother’s in-laws house.
If there's any homes in this video still standing they are out of reach of ordinary people. Now these stars are Decked out in their beautiful mausoleums with endless leisure time. Nothing much changed for them.
Hotel Des Artistes: pronounced: Otel Dezartiste .
which one do you want?
Hi the twenties are a dramatic and progressive time , social alteration in morals and economic structure even in the global sense ability . 🏳️🌈👌🏾🦹🏾♂️👍🧕🏿
Pago Pago is pronounced "pango pango."
I get it was the in thing at the time but it's the gaudiest ugliest decor ever to grace homes of any era.
I wonder how many of these places are still standing? A producer friend of mine has a place in the Malibu colony as it is today. For all of the millions he and his neighbours paid for their places, they still have total strangers 5 feet away on the beach in front of them every day.
Nice, but you know what the Bible says about "building your houses upon the sand...., don't you? Not very stable, indeed!
Maybe it looks better inperson or if one can see color photos. Most of it looks like dumpy worn junk you'would find on
the street., but one or two of the houses do look nice from the outside.
What an unimaginative, ignorant comment.
