Embark on a grand adventure through picturesque Scotland with this 1940s amateur travelogue, captured on vibrant Kodachrome film. Four brave and tidy youths traverse their way around youth hostels, singing and cycling through locations such as Ben Nevis, Loch Lomond, Glencoe, Glasgow, Edinburgh Zoo, Queensferry, Dundee, Auchmithie and Alford. The film captures wholesome enjoyment amidst plenty of fresh air, corduroy shorts, and delicious ginger beer. Little is known about the individuals featured in the footage. The only information available is the credit “E.J.G.S. Film Productions” at the beginning of the film, which could potentially refer to the group of friends depicted. The word “colour” in the titles is spelled the American way “color” maybe that’s a clue as to the origins of the group in the film. Perhaps the film was originally only intended for viewing by close friends and family, or maybe the filmmakers belonged to a cine club that regularly screened their work. Though the identities of the individuals portrayed may be unknown, their stories provide touching and alluring insights into the lives of those who created the films.
