A Century of Old Hitchin on Film DVD

Richard Whitmore, Sam Hallas, Tim Ray

This DVD consists of seven fascinating early films of the town and its people, from 1911 to the 1950s, which have been lovingly restored: the coronation Celebrations 1911, retrieved from original, fragile nitrate stock; War-Time Hitchin with its chilling images of a Nazi salute; the Spirit of Youth - Hitchin's Youth Centre in 1948; the Story of Tilehouse Street 1950, dedicated to local historian Reginald Hine; and the Festival of Britain Celebrations 1951. The DVD has a playing time of over two hours.
