The Pathé News Reels are excellent sources of video and still clips of historical events from across the British Empire between 1896 and 1976. Among the many clips from the Caribbean, one can find events such as the British intervention and suspension of the constitution of British Guiana in 1953; opening of the Federal Parliament in 1958; women selling ‘monkeys’ in Bridgetown c.1930, and, of course, cricket lovely cricket!
The clips can be downloaded and licensed for Power-point presentations, film documentaries, etc.
Enjoy!
