It begins with the Remount School of Horsemanship and features horse trainers and veterinarians selecting, training and working with horses. The NYPD has had horse patrols since 1858 and often refers to them as "10 Foot cops". At 6:40 a newly trained horse is shown patrolling the city with two veteran horses. At 8:49 some of the over 300 horses on patrol are shown leaving their stables, and at 9:04 working a parade or performing a rescue. At 9:16 the horse patrols near the liner SS Normandie and at 9:27 in Times Square for New Years. At 9:45 a police horse is retired to a barn to live out its life eating molasses, sugar and being fed by young girls. Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed. For almost two decades, we've worked to collect, scan and preserve the world as it was captured on 35mm, 16mm and 8mm movies -- including home movies, industrial films, and other non-fiction. If you have endangered films you'd like to have scanned, or wish to donate celluloid to Periscope Film so that we can share them with the world, we'd love to hear from you.

Entirely film backed, this material is available for licensing in 24p HD, 2k and 4k.
