Motor Rally

1928 , Ipswich (Suffolk)

Cat no. 67

A motor rally at Ipswich, 1928.

The film opens with crowd scenes of spectators. This is followed by a shot of a gateway by the 'Automatic Arcade' and the 'Gypsy Palmist', suggesting that this could be part of a Fete. Motor cycles, motor cycle combinations and cars emerge from the gateway past the cheering crowds. Some of the passengers are waving to the crowds. The last two shots show stationary combinations and cars.
