Background Information
The film appears in black and white, and flickering, but the original was filmed and projected to create an early colour effect known as Kinemacolor through the use of colour filters. This 16mm copy was owned by a film engineer who developed a Kinema Colour process for his own home movies. The film has not been identified by direct comparison with a copy at the BFI. The film 'Miscellaneous Flowers' has previously been linked with the other two films on this reel as sourced from the BFI. A definite identification, or correction, would be welcome. 'Miscellaneous Flowers' is not directly attributed to George Albert Smith, but associated with his work through the Natural Colour Kinematograph Company.
