Join film archivist Rick Prelinger for the first-ever East Bay-focused presentation in his lauded series of ‘Lost Landscapes’ screenings: a montage of rediscovered and rarely-seen film clips showing the Oakland of yore, captured by amateurs, newsreel cameramen, and industrial filmmakers. Prelinger, the founder of the legendary Prelinger Archives and guest curator for the exhibition Bay Motion: Capturing San Francisco Bay on Film, has become known for annual ‘Lost Landscapes’ screenings that have happened in San Francisco and Detroit. This program combines eclectic content with vibrant discussion and audience participation.
Please come early to reserve your seat. Seating is limited and available on a first-come first serve basis.
$5 or 5 books! What kind of books are you looking for? I can certain donate some books.

Hey Rick!
Long time no see, since I left the 16th & Geary store, a bit over two years ago, now.
Anywho, I moved to the store at Bush & Van Ness (don’t be a stranger now- I’m a shift lead- if my Mgr is not there, I can comp you guys!)
So… I actually moved to Oakland about a year and a half ago… and ALOT of my good friends live there… We are DYIN’ to see your Lost Landscapes of Oakland thing tomorrow!
Hope to see you there, man
Erik
