500    Originally produced film from 1900-1913. 
500    "In the earliest years of the twentieth century, 
       enterprising traveling showmen in the north of England 
       hired pioneer filmmakers Sagar Mitchell and James Kenyon 
       to shoot footage of local people going about their 
       everyday activities. These films would be shown later at 
       nearby fairgrounds, town halls and neighborhood theaters. 
       Workers, school children, sports fans and seaside 
       vacationers all flocked to see themselves miraculously 
       captured on screen. The astonishing discovery of the 
       original Mitchell & Kenyon negatives in Blackburn, England
       in a basement about to be demolished has been described as
       film's equivalent of Tutankhamen's tomb. ...This treasure 
       trove of extraordinary footage provides an unparalleled 
       record of everyday life in the years before World War I."
