Ile check it out thank youTry the CSJ in London. Or have a search for Piers Nicholson’s stuff - Santiago-Compostela.net and elsewhere.
For those interested in "how it once looked" check out the images in this 1963 Spanish newsreel showing three male pilgrims in capes walking from Burgos to Fromista along a barren windy meseta path. >> http://www.elcaminosantiago.com/Camino- ... n-1963.htm.

Same here. It looks like a browser problem with playing mp4 files and I'm already fed up with trying to fix it. So I put Peregrinación 1963 into the YouTube search field. Not only did I get the short video that @mspath has mentioned but also several movies from the Spanish public broadcaster RTVE about the Camino de Santiago. One from January 1955 and another one from January 1970. I find them very interesting. It may not be what the OP is looking for as it doesn't have any people walking with a backpack but it shows how present the Camino de Santiago and its patrimony and heritage was in the collective consciousness in Spain in the 1950s to 1970s, long before most of us had ever heard of it.I get an error message when trying that link

I had been waiting for @mspath to answer as she is very knowledgeable in these things and knows where the links are but now my lack of patience is getting the better of meI cant understand the spanish but were the perigrinos priests or just pilgrims??
I see now that one of them was actually a priest at the time but he left the priesthood later to become a full-time historian and author.In 1963, three young members of our association set out to cover the almost 800 km from Roncesvalles to Santiago
It is interesting that, although these three pilgrims walked the route, the initial idea of pilgrimages on the Camino seems to have been more inclusive of those done by car than is now the case, as is evidenced by scouting out where the service stations should go to support pilgrims.In particular, they set out to indicate places where it would be convenient to build fountains, service stations for cars, hotels, inns etc etc.Translated with the help of www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
