- Physical Description
- 1 film reel (125 ft.) : acetate, reversal, col., [sd.] ; 8mm
- Scope and Content
- Consists of one 125 ft. 8mm film depicting the May Day events of 1949. Events included the parade, the May Pole, dances, speeches, the ceremony and races. This item has a title label of ‘All May Day 1949’ as well as ‘#1A.’ This video is on 1968 Kodak safety film (produced in an unknown location), although the original footage was shot in 1949, thus this may be a copy of the original footage. This film is in colour but uncertain if the film contains sound because it was printed as a reversal film and not a negative.
- Notes
- Parts of or all of this film were transfered to Mini DV tape and onto DVD.
