A Trip to Ambleside/Bowness/Windermere (1975)

Cleaned it up a little and increased frame rate to 50FPS.
The transfer of the (Super 8?) film to video had a lot of duplicate/blurred frames. I was able to take many of them out but many remain hence the artfacts. But overall I think it looks pretty good.
From BFI site:
Members of the Merseyside Society for Deaf People enjoy a glorious sunny day for their visit to the Lake District, recorded in this short colour film. The group gather at Ambleside before taking a trip on a Windermere pleasure boat, the visitors signing to each other as the lakeside scenery glides by. Finally, everyone reassembles by the coaches to chat and converse before the return to Liverpool.

Restored and colourised. Royal visits were popular in the town because of ship launches. In this case it was HMS Dominion and the visiting royal was HRH Princess Louise, eldest daughter of Edward VII. Will have to wait until the technology can work with specific colourisation (the Alderman are in red I'm informed).

From BFI website "This is one of the least crowded and best-behaved of Mitchell and Kenyon's 'factory gate' films (the space between people is striking). It was commissioned by the prolific Ralph Pringle. A bowler-hatted showman is visible to the right of the arch. The rather touching second shot of a lone, uniformed man (a decorated veteran?) is enigmatic now, though perhaps self-explanatory t...

Restored and colourised film originally shot in Barrow-in-Furness by Mitchell and Kenyon in early 1902. Workers from the Flax and Jute Works on Hindpool Rd. From BFI site This example of the many 'factory gate' films made by Mitchell & Kenyon shows a largely female workforce, which helps to identify the unnamed factory as the Jute textile works. The showman, in a bowler hat, glances at the came...
