Mid-20th Century Tehran
by Peykan on Tue Oct 20, 2009 05:32 AM PDTNoteworthy:
1- The kids are playing with "ferfereh" on the street during the first 10 seconds.
2- Hassan-Abad square (s=22).
3- Shaabdolazim and Reza-Shah's tomb are shown during the final seconds.
4- Most cars were American, with a few W. German-made ones.
5- "Gaaris" were part of the traffic equation all over the city.
6- Teenager boys (probably students) were wearing suits.
