If you like Redtops, then there’s lots in this, again a quick capture using iPhone so not best of quality, late 1960’s early 1970’s

[🇺🇦EE LIGHTNING🇺🇦 @ChrisPerkins53]

From a film from late 1960’s early 1970’s, looks like stock footage put together to form a film.
Not a good copy, just a quick setup, using my iPhone, I was a bit impatient, just fixed my 16mm projector, after being broken your years, will get better quality soon
