I just finished watching all (currently) 606 videos in Eye Filmmuseum's Bits and Pieces collection, which collects high quality 1-4 minute fragments of silent films and newsreels from between approximately 1900-1940, many of which no longer exist in a complete form.
Because I want more people to know about this, I compiled 66 of my favorites from the collection here. These include improbable contraptions, early animation, and many short clips of people from the 1910s goofing off.
If you're interested in the full collection, it can be found here. I highly recommend it; the bursts of imagery give a really interesting glimpse into life in the early 1900s
