British Pathé recently shared a wonderful set of retro manufacturing films from the 1960s. The quality is excellent throughout. Two, however, stood out for me: the segment devoted to Parking Meters (partly because they’re sort of an odious machine but also partly because the Expire signage is great) and the segment devoted to Humbugs (which I had never heard of before but am grateful for this delightful bit of trivial knowledge). Watch the full video here and check out British Pathé’s site for more archival videos.
