Topical budget : the great British news film.
Compilation of Topical Budget newsreels, ranging from 1913 to 1926, including First World War footage, first film ever shot inside 10 Downing Street, and the wedding of the Duke of York (future King George VI). A compilation of coverage taken from Topical Budget (1911-1931) one of the major British newsreels of the silent era. See shotlist for details. Cataloguer's comment: footage of another match cut into the 1921 Cup Final reel. Wonderful footage of men on ship trying to impersonate Charlie Chaplin. Physical Condition good. Image condition varies depending on level of deterioration of original print, The End of The War, Civil War in Ireland, and England's Glorious Victory all notably poor quality, all others have some scratches / fading etc transferred over from original film. From back of sleeve: "Topical Budget illustrates early newsreel form and gives an entertaining portrait of the times."
