Cuts (rushes, out takes) for stories in Colour Pictorial - CP 544. Cut stories are on Pathe Master tape *PM0323*.
CAIRNGORMS MOUNTAINEERS - similar footage to cut story. Only a couple of shots at beginning of reel, more after "Birds of Prey" sequence.
CAIRNGORMS SKIERS - similar footage to cut story - ski lifts, skiers, nursery slope, packing skis into the boot of a coach etc. There is more footage towards the end of the reel. Nice footage of coach ride through snowy landscape.
BIRDS OF PREY - similar footage to cut story of falconers and a Giant Condor. Some other birds are seen including parrots. Birds are seen perched on standing stones. Pieces of meat are cut and wrapped in fur. There are quite a lot of cuts for this item so worth checking for extra material.
UNIDENTIFIED CUTS - probably from "FACTORY NURSERY" - CP 545
Some footage at end of reel of a group of young children at school saying their prayers. Footage of group of women in overalls lining up at a canteen for lunch. Good shots of average working women, not all dolled up! Don't know where these cuts come from. Children sit at a table and eat lunch. Some make a nice mess. Perhaps this is a crèche. Women seen in the canteen are seen again at their sewing machines in the workshop. Nice footage of children asleep in dormitory beds.
