MIDDLEWICH SHOW 1937 FILM

Here's a direct YouTube link to a short (15 minutes) film of the Middlewich Agriculture Show in 1937. The film was produced by members of MCACS (the Mid-Cheshire Amateur Cinematography Society) and the original is now in the North-West Film Archive at Manchester University, as part of the Roberts Collection. Various bootleg copies of this film are in circulation on DVD, but this  is the official Salt Town Productions version, complete with restored opening titles. The copyright is held by me.
We hope during the course of this year to be able to present the rest of the films in the Roberts Collection on 'A Middlewich Diary', along with some of the audio presentations we have produced for Middlewich Town Council. Dave Roberts, Editor
