The National Film Registry provides the following description for this historic silent film: \u201cFilmed from 1922 to 1929, the film documents the expeditions of Walter Wanderwell and Aloha Wanderwell Baker, the first woman to drive around the world by car. The couple, along with a crew of volunteers, crisscrossed dozens of countries in a caravan of Ford Model Ts, filming people, cultures and historical landmarks on 35mm film. Learning the filmmaking craft along the way, Aloha served as camera assistant, cinematographer, editor, actress, screenwriter, interpreter, driver, negotiator, and, at times, director.\u201d<\/p>\n
Diamond, who is also Aloha\u2019s grandson, is responsible for working to preserve the \u201cAloha Wanderwell Collection\u201d including rare footage, technicolor movies and one sound film. There are even some home movies in color that feature Humphrey Bogart.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s exhilarating to know that \u2018With Car and Camera Around the World\u2019 will be preserved for generations to come,\u201d Diamond says.<\/p>\n

She visited places no western man or woman had seen before.\u00a0She was a figure of controversy that combined reality with romance. Her quest for adventure was untamable.<\/p>\n Born on October 13, 1906, she was inspired by the fantastic tales she read in her father\u2019s beloved collection of boyhood books, she dreamed of travel, adventure and intrigue in far-flung corners of the globe. At the age of 16, she embarked on an ambitious, around-the\u2013world expedition led by \u201cCaptain\u201d Wanderwell.<\/p>\n For more information: https:\/\/www.AlohaWanderwell.com<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AlohaWanderwell\/<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/twitter.com\/alohawanderwell<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/pinterest.com\/alohawanderwell<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/alohawanderwell<\/a><\/p>\n MULTIMEDIA:<\/strong><\/p>\n *VIDEO: See rare 1920s and 1930s footage from Aloha Wanderwell: https:\/\/youtu.be\/QbrzyJsZmCw<\/a><\/p>\n
