Black & white silent amateur footage of the K.M. Akiyama family of Los Angeles, filmed by Mr. Noritake, ca. 1936-1941.

This segment (01:18) shows the Akiyama family posing in front of their home, with individual shots of each. A brief scene shows potted houseplants on exterior shelves. A boy sits on a wheeled toy while holding an Easter basket; boys play and ride a bicycle along the street, and join the father and a friend sitting on the front porch.
