Dating to 1953, “Paris the Ageless City” was produced by Arthur Wolfe, released by Young America Films and made by the Centron Corporation. The film shows the City of Light in the post-WWII era, with its tree lined avenues, cobble stone streets, bikes, taxis, and buses. The Seine River, Notre Dame, Sacre Couer cathedral, the Louvre (2:30), and many other sights are shown. Special treatment is given to the Eiffel Tower starting at the 6:15 mark. It includes shots from the Tower Restaurant and vistas of the city.
