Coatesville Dems: Down 8th Avenue Coatesville PA 1935 and 2020

Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Down 8th Avenue Coatesville PA 1935 and 2020

I recently discovered that I could convert my Dad’s 8mm movies on VHS files to MP4 videos. Now I can upload them to YouTube.

My Dad, James A. Pitcherella shot a lot of short clips with his 1935 Kodak Cine Camera

You could only do short clips before you needed to open the back to flip the 16 mm film to the other side

It’s where the flares from light leaks come from on old home movies.

I made, “Down 8th Avenue Coatesville 1935 and 2020:

The 8mm copy ain’t that good, but it’s what I have for now.
