This incredible footage was filmed by a long time worker in the Canadian film and television industry who was fortunate at the time to have access to very high priced (back then) 16mm equipment. We were able to acquire this from his estate many years ago and this is the first chance we've had to share it. This 1931 footage was captured on the deck of the London cruise ship "The Duchess of Antholl" which was sunk by a U boat in 1942. This is film of a family at play on the waters of pre war England. The film has suffered in some sports from age but overall very clear and enjoyable. Note: This piece was filmed silent and has no audio.
