Also worth taking a look at http://www.britishpathe.com/. Footage is available depicting manufacture at Brocks factory in Hemel Hampstead, also footage recorded at Standard Fireworks of Huddersfield from the post-war period.

Also available: A WMV and a QuickTime Edition.


No need to install the original player software! They bring the codec along with the small *zip. package.

Those adverts are a bit contradicting, one is saying you should wear gloves when handling sparklers, and in another there is a guy holding a sparkler without a glove whilst talking to the camera.

I don't know which specific films you are talking about, but perhaps they were made many years apart and the advice changed in the interim period.
